Gem Mint State 1899 Double Eagle

1899 $20 MS65 NGC. The Florida grading service has only examined two finer examples of this date, while PCGS has never graded a better one.

Like many of its peers, this issue is an example of a condition rarity in the series with finer examples essentially non-existent. Census: 64 in 65, 2 finer (6/06).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 26CM, PCGS# 9035, Greysheet# 9834)
