Description

Charming 1916-S Double Eagle, MS66

1916-S $20 MS66 PCGS. CAC. The initial scarcity of this issue was dampened somewhat by the discovery of a South American hoard that put 4,000 Mint State examples on the market (Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth, 2006). High-grade specimens such as this Premium Gem are still difficult, however, and finer specimens are nearly nonexistent. Potent luster issues from the coin's yellow-gold surfaces and a well executed strike delivers strong definition to the design elements. The few ticks and grazes are inconsequential.
