Description

Elusive Near-Gem 1922-S Double Eagle

1922-S $20 MS64 NGC. The mintage of more 2.6 million pieces is a mere historical footnote, since only a minuscule portion of the production ever left Treasury vaults. Most 1922-S twenties were eventually melted into a number of the gold bricks that line the walls of Fort Knox. This is a lustrous and lightly abraded example. Sun-gold aside from the occasional small cherry-red alloy spot.(Registry values: N2998)
