1911 Double Eagle, MS64+
Scarce Any Finer

1911 $20 MS64+ PCGS Secure. Roger W. Burdette writes in Saint-Gaudens Double Eagles as Illustrated by the Phillip H. Morse and Stephen Duckor Collections: "Most 1911 double eagles apparently were shipped to Europe although it is unlikely any were shipped until after the year of manufacture. The overwhelming majority of authenticated and graded coins fall in the low to mid-Uncirculated rage -- generally MS63 or below." This near-Gem is decidedly above-average and razor-sharp with radiant mint frost over clean yellow-gold surfaces. A single hit on the second 1 in the date merits mention.(Registry values: N2998)
