1915 Double Eagle, MS65
Only One Piece is Finer at PCGS

1915 $20 MS65 PCGS. The 1915 double eagle is one of those curious issues within the Saint-Gaudens series that is widely available in lower Mint State grades, but at the Gem level is absolutely "as good as it gets," save for a single NGC-graded MS66 and one MS65+ at PCGS (the latter being the Dr. Duckor coin, which we offered in our 2012 FUN Signature). The Gem submissions at NGC and PCGS are slightly skewed with 42 at NGC and 60 at PCGS (11/22). The 1915 double eagle is a well-produced issue; this example shows the typical generous luster for which it is well-known, over splendid yellow-gold surfaces that are also well-struck and well-preserved. No mentionable marks appear on either side.
