1924-S Double Eagle, MS64
Rare in Higher Grades

1924-S $20 MS64 PCGS. While the Philadelphia issue of this date is common, the San Francisco coin is quite scarce in high grade, being rarely seen above MS64. Most of the more than 2.9 million coins struck were melted in the mid-1930s, never having been distributed to a significant extent through the federal reserve banks to public commerce. Most of the pieces known today came through official channels in small numbers, and a number of pieces also turned up in overseas holdings beginning in the 1950s. These coins make the issue collectible today, though challenging. This well-struck piece shows deep peach-gold luster and good eye appeal for the grade. Some small abrasions are noted as expected.(Registry values: N4719)
