1914 Saint-Gaudens Twenty, MS64
Frosted Orange-Gold Color

1914 $20 MS64 PCGS. Although the United States did not enter World War I until April 1917, reductions of gold exports and monetary policy limited the 1914 double eagle production to under 100,000 coins, which were primarily used to back Gold Certificates. About 6% to 10% of the mintage survives today, according to Roger Burdette's research. This near-Gem Uncirculated survivor displays frosty orange-gold color and vibrant mint luster. The strike is bold with minor softness at the torch hand and Capitol building. A few light marks at Liberty's midriff account for the assigned grade. PCGS reports only 61 numerically finer examples, plus another 61 pieces in 64+ (10/25).(Registry values: N2998)
