Gem 1908-D No Motto Double Eagle

1908-D $20 No Motto MS65 PCGS. While a substantial mintage of 663,750 coins were produced, most of those met one of two fates. Either they were stored in the Treasury as backing for gold certificates, or they were exported overseas. Today, examples of this issue are easily located in lower Mint State grades through MS63. Choice MS64 examples are much more elusive, and Gem specimens such as this are almost never encountered. This is a frosty Gem with light yellow-gold luster and traces of pale pink toning. A couple patches of reddish-orange patina adhere to the reverse. Population: 65 in 65, 4 finer (10/04).(#9143) (Registry values: N4719)
