Flashy 1908-D No Motto Double Eagle, MS65

1908-D $20 No Motto MS65 PCGS. 1907 may have been the first year of Saint-Gaudens' remarkable double eagle, but 1908 was still a transitional year, with both No Motto and With Motto varieties struck. The 1908-D is not only popular because of its two types, but also because it was the first Saint-Gaudens double eagle struck at the Denver Mint. This fully struck Gem exhibits charming yellow-gold patina throughout, and has minimal abrasions in the fields. Flashy cartwheel luster enhances the eye appeal. PCGS has certified only nine coins finer (6/08). (Registry values: N4719)
