1924-S Double Eagle, MS64
Scarce in High Grade

1924-S $20 MS64 PCGS. CAC. Mint State examples of the 1924-S double eagle are scarce in all grades, despite a mintage in excess of 2.9 million pieces. The date is particularly elusive in MS64, and CAC-approved coins in this grade are decidedly rare. PCGS reports only eight finer coins. We have previously handled a CAC-endorsed MS64 piece on only 11 occasions. The most recent was the MS64+ PCGS CAC example in our August 2020 Dallas Signature, which realized $44,400.

This MS64 PCGS CAC example displays rich orange-gold luster that complements sharp definition throughout the devices. The torch is particularly well defined. A few small, scattered field marks on both sides determine the grade, but there are no obtrusive abrasions.(Registry values: N4719)
