http://www.coinworld.com/ Coin World has a lead article this week on the discovery of a $20 Liberty rarity--the 1856-O. I enjoyed the article and the coin looks high end for the picture on the front cover. Apparently it has not been graded yet.
Like a story line out of a fairy tale. Acquiring a '56-O or '54-O $20 is to the New Orleans Double Eagle enthusiast what acquiring an 1804 silver dollar is to a silver dollar enthusiast.
The coin is being run in the Long Beach auction by Heritage: http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=1144&LotIdNo=210001 It turns out the coin graded XF45.
