{"product_id":"1877-s-20-ms62-pcgs-cac","title":"1877-S $20 MS62+ PCGS CAC","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eThe 1877-S double eagle is a fascinating late-Type II Liberty Head issue from the height of San Francisco’s role in converting vast quantities of Western gold into federal coinage, and this PCGS MS62+ CAC example stands out as an especially attractive representative of the date. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eStruck from a mintage of 1,735,000 pieces, an estimated 8,500 examples survive today across all grades, with higher-quality certified pieces remaining popular among collectors. Both sides are fully struck with bold central detail. Rich frosty golden-orange luster blankets the surfaces and rolls evenly across the expansive fields, giving the coin vibrant cartwheel energy and a fresh Mint State appearance. The obverse shows warm honey-gold color accented by deeper orange highlights, while the reverse mirrors this originality with glowing frost and remarkably sharp detail throughout the eagle and denomination. Particularly impressive for a conditionally challenging San Francisco double eagle, the fields are exceptionally smooth for the assigned grade, with only minor scattered abrasions that remain well within the tolerance for the lofty MS62+ level and are notably less distracting than usually seen on large-format gold of this era. The eye appeal is far stronger than most survivors, easily justifying the CAC endorsement and positioning the coin as a premium-for-grade example. No recent public sales except 4 years ago for $9,000 and $7,200 in 2022; however, since then more recently another example sold for $8,504 07\/25 GC aligning well with the current PCGS Price Guide value of $8,500. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgs.com\/cert\/51057041\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePCGS Cert Verification #\u003cspan\u003e51057041\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• PCGS Price Guide -$8,500\u003cbr\u003e• PCGS POP - 22\/43\u003cbr\u003e• CAC POP - 6 Finer\u003cbr\u003e• PCGS Coin# \u003cspan\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003ca class=\"underline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgs.com\/coinfacts\/coin\/detail\/8984\/62\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e8984\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PCGS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52036976542008,"sku":"51057041","price":7750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/3891\/0535\/files\/1_9cd2f469-7540-41f1-90f3-cee0967afdd4.jpg?v=1783489386","url":"https:\/\/paradimecoins.com\/products\/1877-s-20-ms62-pcgs-cac","provider":"Paradime Coins","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
