Description
1908 Motto Double Eagle, MS64 CAC
Seldom Available Finer
1908 $20 Motto MS64 PCGS. CAC. After producing a large
mintage of the old No Motto design earlier in the year, the
Philadelphia Mint struck a modest total of 156,258 Saint-Gaudens
double eagles with the motto IN GOD WE TRUST on the reverse in
1908. The With Motto coins all featured the new Long Rays obverse
and were delivered in 12 batches in November and December. Many of
the coins were used in foreign trade and repatriated from European
sources in later years. Most examples seen are in lower
Uncirculated grades, with bagmarked surfaces from rough storage and
handling. This spectacular Choice example exhibits sharply detailed
design elements and well-preserved orange-gold surfaces that show
no mentionable distractions. Vibrant mint luster radiates from both
sides, enhancing the outstanding eye appeal. The high quality
within the grade is confirmed by CAC.(Registry values: N2998)From The Presidio Collection.
