1904 $20 Double Eagle--Double Struck in Collar--MS63 PCGS. The rarity of error gold coins is so obvious that it hardly needs to be mentioned. Because of the value of these pieces and their status as the highest denomination coin struck by the U.S., quality control was very strict. There are very few errors of any denomination available, especially from the 19th and early 20th centuries. This lustrous double eagle remained in the collar after its initial strike. The piece rotated counterclockwise a degree or two, then was struck a second time. The rotated double strike causes shelf-like outlines near the design elements. This piece allows the observation of an interesting phenomenon regarding rotated double struck coins. Often, these pieces are misinterpreted as having a triple strike. For example, the tip of Liberty's nose on the present piece has outlines from two different strikes northwest and southwest of the nose. These outlines represent the portion of the devices that did not overlap between the two strikes. The raised portions of the devices correspond to the overlap between the strikes. Thus, raised areas that are thin or small, such as the stars and legends, are heavily distorted, since most of the design element is flat while traces are raised where the strikes overlapped for that element. However, even the major devices have a blurry appearance to the naked eye, since the relief varies across the portrait and eagle. LIBERTY, which is raised on the coronet, is fragmented, similar to the date and the peripheral reverse legends. Some letters are more greatly affected than others by the double strike, possibly because the second strike was stronger in that area, and thus the prior strike detail was obliterated and replaced with a bold impression from the second strike. More likely, however, the degree of rotation of the elements, while identical across the border, affects the letters near 3 and 9 o'clock to a greater degree than at 12 o'clock. This would explain why STATES is

1904 $20 MS66 PCGS. This coin really should be a different date, as it has nothing in common with the run-of-the-mill 1904 double eagles that are ever-present in the numismatic marketplace. The pristine surfaces, with no mentionable marks of any size, are the first characteristic that sets this phenomenal type coin apart. Then one notes the effulgent cartwheel luster that radiates from each side. The strike makes details obvious that are seldom seen: the tear duct in the corner of Liberty's eye, the individual strands of hair on the forelock, the fine feather separation on the eagle. For the numismatist (or art collector, for that matter) who desires one of the finest, this is a nearly unimprovable example: PCGS has graded only two coins finer, and NGC has graded one finer (1/06). Statistically speaking, the 250 examples graded MS66 at both services are in the top 0.004% of the more than 6 million pieces minted. (PCGS# 9045)

1904 $20 MS66 NGC. The 1904 has the second highest mintage of any U.S. gold coin. Only the 1928 was struck in greater numbers. Millions of double eagles met their end in Treasury furnaces following Roosevelt's gold recall. Nonetheless, the 1904 is common today in grades through MS64. In Gem or finer grades, the 1904 is surprisingly scarce, since gold coins of this era were strictly regarded as bullion for decades after their production. Loose bag storage and indifferent handling decimated the quantity of high grade pieces. NGC and PCGS combined have certified just 3 pieces as MS67 with none finer. MS66 examples are also rare, and are under strong pressure from gold type collectors and hoarders. The present piece has a remarkably smooth obverse, and the reverse displays only trivial contact. The strike is precise, and potent luster fully illuminates the yellow-gold fields and devices. (PCGS# 9045)
