- Premium quality San Francisco mint issue that displays exuberant luster for the assigned grade. Fully struck over virtually all design elements, this very pleasing MS-61 is sure to garner much attention. The mintage for this popular San Francisco Mint issue is 928,000 pieces. Some small amount of this mintage later found its way into foreign banking transactions. Many of the low range Uncirculated pieces known today owe their existence to the return of those exported coins to America in the mid-20th century. We estimate that 50 to 80 Mint State examples of the 1871-S $20 can be accounted for today. This is one of the finer examples available to today's quality conscious gold enthusiasts.
