Description
Near-Mint 1908-S Saint-Gaudens Twenty
Only 22,000 Minted
1908-S $20 AU58 PCGS. Discounting the High Relief issue of
1907, the 1908-S Saint-Gaudens double eagle boasts the lowest
business-strike mintage of the series, at a paltry 22,000 pieces.
The date is seldom encountered in Mint State grades, making an
appealing near-Mint specimen, like the present coin, an appropriate
choice for most collectors. Vibrant mint luster radiates from the
pleasing greenish-gold surfaces, and only the slightest traces of
wear are evident on the design elements.(Registry values: N1793)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 26FA, PCGS# 9149, GSID# 10161)
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
Weight: 33.44 grams

Mintage: 22,000
