Description

Upper-End MS64 1924-S Twenty
An Important Absolute and Condition Rarity

1924-S $20 MS64 PCGS. One of the legendary rarities in the Saint-Gaudens series, the 1924-S was apparently one of the most heavily melted issues as very few coins are known today. Only a few scattered pieces have been found since 1953 in Europe, and no sizeable hoards have been reported. The mint luster is thick and heavily frosted with greenish-gold and orange hues. Sharply defined in all areas, the surfaces are remarkably clean with no mentionable abrasions or alloy spots. Fewer than 200 coins have been seen at both PCGS and NGC in MS64 (minus the usual resubmissions). An MS64 1924-S is the finest coin most collectors will have an opportunity to own. Above that, only 22 coins have been graded. As such, this is a coin that should be carefully inspected by the advanced collector.(Registry values: N4719)
