Outstanding Superb Gem 1923-D Double Eagle

1923-D $20 MS67 PCGS. CAC. It is virtually impossible to describe a 1923-D twenty without discussing the luster characteristics peculiar to this issue. The luster shimmers and glows over the surfaces unlike any other Saint-Gaudens issue. While the 1923-D is more expensive than the norm for a type coin, selecting it provides the opportunity for unparalleled eye appeal. This particular coin not only incorporates the usual outstanding luster, but also the remarkably attractive patina that makes this issue famous. Both sides are complemented with golden-orange centers that are bordered with mint-green peripheries. The striking details are fully brought up, and as one might infer from the grade, the surfaces are virtually pristine. Superlative quality. Housed in an earlier PCGS holder with a green label, and tied for the finest graded by that service (6/08).
