Description
1908-S Double Eagle, MS62
Boldly Struck and Highly Collectible
1908-S $20 MS62 PCGS. With only 22,000 pieces struck, the
1908-S was formerly considered even more elusive than it is today
-- although it remains scarce, with many collectors quite proud to
own an example in any grade. As is the story with many mintmarked
issues in particular, more are available now than formerly known
due to repatriations from overseas hoards. This MS62 specimen is
boldly struck, highly lustrous, and offers surprisingly good eye
appeal thanks to a ring of amber-gold at the rims surrounding
lustrous, orange-gold centers. A sprinkling of scattered, trivial
marks keeps this coin from an even finer grade. Sharply defined at
the Capitol Building and at the stars, the coin displays sharp
definition at Liberty's hair tresses and fully formed fingers grasp
the torch. Population: 87 in 62 (2 in 62+), 92 finer
(9/24).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 26FA, PCGS# 9149, Greysheet# 10161)
