Description

1914-S Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle, MS66
Registry-Grade Example

1914-S $20 MS66 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Fox. The 1914-S Saint-Gaudens double eagle is an available early series issue from a mintage of nearly 1.5 million pieces. The 1914-S becomes somewhat scarce at the MS66 grade level, however, and finer examples are almost never available. This stunning Premium Gem exhibits well-detailed design elements and vivid orange-gold surfaces that show no mentionable distractions. Vibrant mint luster adds to the terrific eye appeal. PCGS has graded no numerically finer examples. CAC: 18 in 66, 0 finer (2/20).


David Akers (2008) Comments:
The 1914-S is one of the most common issues in the early, pre-1920 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle series. Thousands of Mint State examples are known, most of which grade MS60 to MS65. Many of these coins trace their pedigrees to hoards that we released into the market during the 15 year period from 1970-1985. Like most issues in this series, the 1914-S is rare in MS66. Superb Gems are virtually unknown.
