Description

Premium Gem 1911-S Saint-Gaudens Twenty
Challenging High Grade Issue

1911-S $20 MS66 PCGS. From a mintage of 775,750 pieces, the 1911-S Saint-Gaudens double eagle is an available date in grades up to MS64. A hoard of mostly lower Mint State coins surfaced in El Salvador, including a few pieces at the Gem level. Only a handful of specimens exist at the Premium Gem level, however, and Superb Gems are virtually unobtainable.
The present coin exhibits the fine, matte-like granularity in the fields that characterizes this issue. The surfaces display softly frosted mint luster and an even reddish-gold color. The pristine fields display no mentionable flaws. Population: 23 in 66, 1 finer (12/09).(Registry values: N4719)
