1914-D Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle, MS66
Spectacular Visual Appeal

1914-D $20 MS66 NGC. CAC. A substantial mintage of 453,000 Saint-Gaudens double eagles was accomplished at the Denver Mint in 1914. Due to the outbreak of World War I, and the subsequent decline in foreign trade, double eagles were not needed in the following years, and no more were produced at the Denver facility until 1923. The 1914-D is an available date in grades up to MS65, but the population dwindles dramatically at the Premium Gem level, and finer grades are virtually unobtainable.
The present coin is a spectacular example, with even reddish-gold color over both sides. The surfaces are virtually flawless, with a slightly granular texture. The striking details are full, with all design elements starkly delineated. Overall eye appeal is tremendous. Census: 40 in 66, 2 finer (3/10).(Registry values: N4719)
