- 1855-S $20 AU58 NGC. CAC. Like the 1856-S and 1857-S issues, the 1855-S double eagle was considered a rarity in Mint State condition prior to the salvage of the S.S. Central America treasure. More than 300 examples were reportedly recovered from the shipwreck, nearly a third of which were in Mint State, these comprising the majority of the known Uncirculated survivors for the issue. Despite this find, Mint State examples of the 1855-S are decidedly scarce on the market. This near-Mint representative shows soft apricot-gold luster beneath original olive-gold overtones, while only a trace of friction is observed and the surfaces are largely free of major flaws. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $6462.50. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1855-S $20 AU58 NGC. CAC. Ex: "Col." E.H.R. Green. The year 1855 witnessed a massive shift in double eagle production from the Philadelphia Mint to the new San Francisco facility that would endure, for the most part, throughout the remainder of the series. The California branch produced nearly 880,000 double eagles that year, compared to little more than 364,000 coins at Philadelphia. The San Francisco issue is proportionately available in an absolute sense, but as most examples circulated extensively, Mint State pieces are genuinely scarce. This nearly Uncirculated coin displays luminous orange-gold luster emanating from beneath thin olive-gold overtones, while only slight friction is seen over each side and the surfaces are nearly free of significant abrasions. Ex: "Colonel" E.H.R. Green; Green Estate; Partnership of Eric P. Newman / B.G. Johnson d.b.a. St. Louis Stamp & Coin Co.; Eric P. Newman @ $100.00; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $4993.75. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1854-S $20 AU55 NGC. The San Francisco Mint produced more than 141,000 double eagles during its first year of operation, but this would prove to be one of the lowest production totals from that facility for the entire series. The 1854-S mintage, however, was widely distributed throughout the Western regions, and most surviving examples are well-circulated. Many of the high-grade coins known today were among the 200 to 300 pieces recovered from the S.S. Yankee Blade shipwreck. This Choice AU representative exhibits smooth green-gold surfaces with hints of rose-gold luster in the protected regions. High-point wear is minimal, and the eye appeal is unusually high for the grade. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $15275.00. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1854-S $20 AU58 NGC. CAC. Production at the newly opened San Francisco Mint began in April 1854, with coinage of the first double eagles bearing an S mintmark. Due in part to the sizeable numbers of privately minted small denominations circulating in Gold Rush-era California, depositors typically requested large denominations, and therefore the new mint's resources were primarily utilized for eagles and double eagles its first year of operation. More than 141,000 double eagles were produced, but surprisingly few survive today. This near-Mint example boasts unusually smooth surfaces and bold design definition. Luminous apricot-gold surfaces increase the eye appeal. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $28200.00. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1853-O $20 AU53 NGC. CAC. Variety 1. Ex: "Col." E.H.R. Green. As the San Francisco Mint would not be operational until the following year, California gold continued to be shipped to Philadelphia and New Orleans in 1853. Double eagle production at the Louisiana facility, however, declined to just 71,000 pieces, partly due to accelerating structural issues within the building. These difficulties would hit their peak in the following years, severely limiting large-scale production. This decrease in output of 1853-O double eagles is reflected in the scarcity of AU survivors and the profound rarity of Mint State coins, with only five of the latter having been certified (8/14). This piece shows warm honey-gold color and minimally abraded surfaces, with remnants of semiprooflike mirroring in the fields. Ex: "Colonel" E.H.R. Green; Green Estate; Partnership of Eric P. Newman / B.G. Johnson d.b.a. St. Louis Stamp & Coin Co.; Eric P. Newman @ $65.00; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $16450.00. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.
