Vibrant MS66 1911-S Twenty, Ex: Brahin

1911-S $20 MS66 PCGS. Ex: Brahin. Though its mintage was not in the millions, the 1911-S double eagle has long been considered one of the more available Saint-Gaudens twenties, and Garrett and Guth describe it as " ... available up to and including grades of MS-65." At the Premium Gem level, however, the numbers change, and the 1911-S is a condition rarity. This impressively lustrous, slightly satiny piece offers an interesting blend of sun-gold and wheat shadings. Excellent detail, particularly on the finer elements of Liberty's branch hand, and remarkable preservation. PCGS has graded only one finer example (8/08).(Registry values: N4719)
