Marvelous 1904 Double Eagle, MS66

1904 $20 MS66 NGC. As a review of NGC and PCGS population figures readily shows, the 1904 twenty dollar is easily obtainable through the Gem level of preservation. The number of certified coins drops significantly from just under 10,000 MS65 pieces to about 350 in Premium Gem. Finer examples are rarely encountered.
Scintillating luster endows both sides of this marvelous MS66 specimen and a powerful strike imparts bold definition to the design elements. Attractive yellow-gold surfaces are devoid of significant marks. The technical quality and aesthetic appeal of this piece make it an excellent choice for a high-grade type collection.
