Description

Near-Gem 1922-S Saint-Gaudens Twenty
Attractive Luster, Sharp Strike

1922-S $20 MS64 PCGS. The 1922-S Saint-Gaudens double eagle was once considered a premier rarity, but its presence in recent hoard finds has reduced its status to merely scarce at the MS64 level. Trying to improve on a Choice coin is still a daunting task, however, as PCGS has certified only 13 examples in higher numeric grades (6/10). The present coin displays sharp striking details and few abrasions for the grade, and the pleasing orange-gold surfaces radiate satiny luster.(Registry values: N2998)

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
