Description

1912 Saint-Gaudens Twenty, MS65+
Highly Elusive in This Grade, CAC Endorsed

1912 $20 MS65+ PCGS. CAC. While considered a relatively common date, in high grades the 1912 double eagle is actually quite scarce. Most of the Mint State coins seen -- and especially those from European sources -- are weakly struck and/or extensively bagmarked. This piece, however, is well defined in all areas, and only the slightest abrasions show in the right obverse field. A small reddish toning spot is seen below the eagle on the reverse. The surfaces are satiny and show a rich yellow-gold color overall. Undoubtedly the most attractive example of this issue that we have seen in quite some time. PCGS Population: 7 in 65+, 13 finer. CAC: 9 in 65, 4 finer (12/25).
