Low Mintage 1914 Saint-Gaudens Twenty, MS65

1914 $20 MS65 PCGS. CAC. The 1914 Saint-Gaudens double eagle boasts a low mintage of 95,250 pieces, and is considered a "better date" in all grades. The issue is a rarity in higher grades. David Akers reports, "Most Mint State examples grade no finer than MS-64, through which grade the 1914 is a very scarce coin. Gems are nothing short of rare." The present coin possesses extraordinary thick, frosty mint luster, unusual on a 1914. The surfaces are slightly granular, with a matte-like finish. Attractive orange-gold color predominates, except over the eagle, where there is the occasional dab of lilac. Population: 37 in 65, 3 finer (11/09).
