Description

1920 Double Eagle, MS64
Only Collectible Issue of 1920

1920 $20 MS64 PCGS. Lime-green and lemon-yellow hues accent the orange-gold surfaces of this vibrantly lustrous, near-Gem 1920 double eagle. The mintage of Philadelphia twenties lagged behind the San Francisco Mint output by a factor of more than 2 to 1, yet the P-mint double eagles are far more available than the 1920-S, which were placed in reserve at the Denver Mint and never distributed. The majority of Philadelphia Mint coins were shipped abroad in 1926, and they continue to find their way back into collectors' hands. Oddly, MS64 pieces are reasonably available, but Gem or finer pieces are extremely rare.(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 26FY, PCGS# 9170, Greysheet# 10143)
