Gem 1924-S Double Eagle, A Condition Census Offering

1924-S $20 MS 65 NGC. An impressive Gem representative of this semi-key San Francisco double eagle, both sides are thickly frosted beneath warm, orange-gold coloration. Every feature is crisply defined and there are no individually mentionable abrasions. A hairline die crack (as produced) is noted through the eagle's beak. There are also a trio of carbon spots: before the L in LIBERTY, above Liberty's right (facing) arm, and in the reverse field below the eagle's beak. NGC and PCGS combined have certified only six coins at the MS 65 level, with a lone MS 67 PCGS specimen finer (11/00).
