***Auction Highlight*** 1855-p Gold Liberty Double Eagle $20 Select+ Unc USCG (fc) - ***Auction Highlight*** 1855-p Gold Liberty Double Eagle $20 Select+ Unc USCG. The Philadelphia Mint, which churned out 364,666 double eagles in 1855, was surpassed in twenty dollar gold production for the first time by its San Francisco counterpart that year. Output reached 879,675 pieces at the West Coast facility. The 1855 is considered an available date in the series, but it is actually scarce in AU condition and very rare in Mint State, about 10 times rarer than the 1855-S in MS60 or finer. Doug Winter reports a survivorship of 15 to 20 Uncirculated 1855 twenties. The 35 submissions at PCGS and NGC combined are undoubtedly inflated by crossovers and resubmissions. A Key Date's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin. I give this coin my highest recommendation
