The 1857-S $20 Liberty Head Double Eagle was struck at the San Francisco Mint amid the California Gold Rush. Graded PCGS MS-63, it remains uncirculated, showing full mint luster and crisp strike, as well as stunning prooflike surfaces. The CAC sticker gives it extra value and prestige.
This example, serial #2871 (Variety 20C), survived the 1857 sinking of the SS Central America, a sidewheel steamer lost in a hurricane off South Carolina while carrying California gold eastward. Dubbed the “Ship of Gold,” the wreck yielded thousands of pristine 1857-S coins during 1980s recovery efforts. Salvaged from the ocean floor, this piece connects the Gold Rush to maritime tragedy and modern treasure hunting.
