1857-S S.S. Central America Liberty Gold Double Eagle ($20)

Vivid orange-gold with apricot and rose highlights, this shipwreck Gem glows with thick, satiny luster that sweeps across both sides. The strike is crisp, with bold hair curls, sharp stars, and well-defined eagle feathers. The reverse fields are especially clean, while light scattered ticks on the cheek and open obverse cap the grade. Excellent eye appeal, attributed 20A Spiked Shield, and housed in the gold foil S.S. Central America holder with a green CAC sticker.
