Appealing Premium Gem 1916-S Double Eagle

1916-S $20 MS66 PCGS. Only San Francisco struck double eagles in 1916, since production in Philadelphia had ceased after 1915 due to the war in Europe. San Francisco, too, would suspend production of the denomination, with new twenties not coming until 1920. This orange-gold Premium Gem is impressively lustrous with considerable orange-peel texture through the obverse fields. Well struck with considerable eye appeal, and tied for the finest certified by PCGS (6/09).(Registry values: N2998)
