Rare Premium Gem 1911-S Twenty Dollar

1911-S $20 MS66 PCGS. The 1911-S Saint-Gaudens is available up to and including grades of MS65, but is exceedingly rare at the Premium Gem grade level, and virtually unobtainable any finer. The PCGS/NGC population data show several thousand coins graded through near-Gem and about 600 in MS65. The MS66 population falls significantly to about 60 specimens, and a solitary coin finer.
The present well struck Premium Gem example displays pleasing luster effects aided by a slightly granular finish. The mint-green and peach color is lovely, original, and distributed over surfaces that are devoid of singularly bothersome abrasions. An attractive coin in every respect. Population: 21 in 66, 1 finer (11/07).
