In the waning glow of the Gilded Age, the 1891-S $20 Liberty Head Double Eagle emerged from San Francisco’s granite-clad mint, a bold emblem of America’s frontier ambition. PCGS has graded 3,097 as MS62 with 1,570 finer.
Struck under James P. Kimball’s stewardship, its 0.961 ounces of gold alloyed with copper for resilience, each piece bore the iconic coronet of Liberty—hair unbound, eyes forward—encircled by thirteen stars for the original colonies.
The “S” mintmark, crisp beneath the eagle’s tail, signaled Western provenance, where assay offices still weighed dust from the Comstock Lode. Christian Gobrecht’s reverse soared with a heraldic eagle, wings spread over a shield, clutching olive branch and arrows—a quiet reminder that prosperity and power walked hand in hand.
Graded PCGS MS-62, this specimen retains sharp frost on Liberty’s cheek and the eagle’s feathers, with only the faintest contact marks from brief circulation. Its surfaces glow with original mint luster, untouched by cleaning or repair, preserving the coin’s dialogue with history: a tangible fragment of an era when gold flowed west and dreams were measured in double eagles.
