Description

Challenging 1922-S Double Eagle, MS63

1922-S $20 MS63 PCGS. The mintage of the 1922-S is nearly double that of the 1922, but the latter issue was exported in great quantity to Europe in return for goods, and tens of thousands of pieces survive in Mint State. The 1922-S, however, seldom left Treasury vaults, and only a tiny fraction of the mintage escaped eventual melting. The present lustrous survivor has original peach and olive-gold toning. Marks are relatively few, and are minor aside from an abrasion beneath the W in TWENTY.(Registry values: N1793)
