1865 US $20, SS Republic, NGC MS64. This is a spectacular coin, in nearly perfect condition, from the SS Republic, which sank off the coast of Port Royal in 1865. As a dead mint coin, it was part of a monetary shipment of brand new $20's as part of one of the shipments, probably perfectly preserved in a treasure box. Gold coins from the Republic are rare. Most of the volume of coins recovered were silver. The fields of this coin are near proof-like. It is a coin of exceptional rarity in MS64 and MS65, with five graded in MS64, and only two finer in MS65. This is a prize for any collection as a great rarity, but is even better as a treasure coin in this condition!
