Description

Notable Gem 1915 Twenty

1915 $20 MS65 PCGS. This challenging issue, with a mintage of 152,050 coins, is an important condition rarity in Gem grades. In fact, an MS65 example such as the present piece is tied for the finest certified by either NGC or PCGS (11/07). Within the MS65 designation, there is significant variation in quality, and the discerning date collector should be patient and wait for a top-flight example. On finding such a coin, however, the would-be owner must actively pursue it.
The softly lustrous wheat-gold surfaces of this Gem are delightfully preserved, and the devices offer solid overall definition, though Liberty's torch hand is a trifle soft. A touch of alloy in the left obverse field is a trivial concern in the context of this coin's immense overall visual appeal.
