Description

1908-D Double Eagle, MS66
With Motto, Clean and Vibrant

1908-D $20 Motto MS66 NGC. The 1908-D Motto double eagle survives to the extent of about 5,500 coins in all grades, according to Roger Burdette (2018). All but 350 pieces or so are in grades of MS64 or lower. The issue becomes conditionally scarce at the Premium Gem level and proves nearly uncollectible in MS67. There are merely four coins numerically finer than this one at PCGS and two at NGC (12/25). The present coin is a spectacular Premium Gem. The fields are exceptionally clean and impressively vibrant on both sides. Satin luster melds with rich orange-gold color to deliver an almost as-struck appearance, and a sharp strike heightens the effect.(Registry values: N4719)
