Unsurpassable 1916-S Double Eagle

1916-S $20 MS 66 PCGS. Like the 1911-D, the 1916-S trades commonness for scarcity when one crosses the MS 65 threshold. Richly colored in reddish-gold hues, the surfaces are free of even the most trivial distraction. We can find no fault with the above average strike, and the cartwheel luster is typically vibrant for the grade. Population: 39 in 66, 0 finer (12/00).
From the Tyler Dillon of Wellesley Collection.
