1908-D No Motto Twenty, MS65
Well Defined and Lustrous

1908-D $20 No Motto MS65 PCGS. Short Rays Obverse. Copious luster emanates from the surfaces of this orange-gold Gem, which has eye appeal in spades in addition to its wide popularity as a type coin to represent the No Motto issues. While near-Gems are seen with regularity, Gems of this issue are elusive. PCGS has certified only 16 examples finer than the present coin, plus another seven examples in 65+ (8/25). This is a richly colored orange-gold Gem with frosty, finely grained surfaces, a sharp strike, and rolling cartwheel luster. A few tiny marks do not distract in the least from the abundant eye appeal.
