Attractive Gem 1914 Twenty

1914 $20 MS65 PCGS. While lower-grade examples of the 1914 double eagle are well within the reach of the average collector, coins at the MS65 level are seldom offered and highly prized. This piece exhibits bright yellow-golden surfaces with subtle hints of antique-golden patina as the coin is turned under a light. Well-defined with a bright, satiny appearance that trumps the mild texture so often found on examples of this popular low-mintage Philadelphia issue. A handful of tiny flaws on each side are consistent with the Gem designation. PCGS has graded only three finer examples (6/08).
From the Stephen Stokely Collection, Part Five.(Registry values: N4719)
