Important MS64 1924-D Double Eagle

1924-D $20 MS64 PCGS. The year 1924, like 1927 and a handful of other dates, offers a fascinating study in contrasts between the experiences of double eagles at the three Mints. While the Philadelphia coins were exported heavily and became common thanks to repatriation, the mintmarked issues of the same date were released only in small quantities, and survival was often in doubt for such pieces. This 1924-D twenty not only survived, it has come through the decades as a near-Gem. Strong yellow-orange luster shines through a thin layer of original "skin" on each side. Solidly struck with a handful of abrasions noted on the disc of the sun on the reverse. PCGS has graded 11 coins finer (6/10).(Registry values: N4719)
