Minted in 1854, the first year of operation for the San Francisco Mint, this $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle is steeped in historical significance. It reflects the transformative impact of the California Gold Rush on the American economy and the establishment of the West Coast's premier mint.
The obverse features the timeless image of Lady Liberty adorned with a coronet inscribed "LIBERTY," surrounded by thirteen stars representing the original colonies. The reverse displays a heraldic eagle clutching arrows and an olive branch, symbolizing strength and peace.
The "S" mintmark denotes its origin from the San Francisco Mint, adding to its historical and regional significance. As the first year of issue from this mint, 1854-S coins are particularly coveted by collectors.
Authenticated and graded by the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) as AU50, this coin features an Almost Uncirculated designation, indicating its well-preserved condition with only light wear. The AU50 grade ensures the coin retains much of its original detail and luster.
The Certified Acceptance Corporation (CAC) sticker adds an extra layer of assurance, signifying that this coin meets the highest standards for its grade. CAC-endorsed coins are highly regarded for their quality and eye appeal.
