Title: 1853-O Gold $20. PCGS AU Details -- Genuine – Cleaned
Header: AU 1853-O Double Eagle
Description: The deep yellow-gold surfaces offer much natural brightness and mint bloom in spite of its grade qualifier. The obverse, though modestly marked from circulation, shows little in the way of a cleaning, but the reverse exhibits patches of hairlines under low magnification. A scarce date in all grades; only 71,000 pieces were produced for commercial use in the Crescent City, and most of the issue was well-used. Indeed, PCGS has certified just two Mint State examples of the date, one MS-60, and the finest at MS-63. Accordingly, AU, even with minor drawbacks, is still an admirable goal for this elusive date.
