Owner Comments:
This $20 Gold piece demonstrates the classic New Orleans green hue. This is most pronounced on the $20 Gold pieces. this coin is not quite an about un-circulated example but it is close. Note that each star has full definition. I am curious what would happen if I sent to coin in to NCS to have the dirt removed and then re-submitted it.
These coins are far more rare then their score would suggest. Hands down New Orleans $20's are far more rare than those from any other mint.
