Description

1925-D Saint-Gaudens Twenty, MS64

1925-D $20 MS64 NGC. Until a few groups of this issue were discovered in the 1950s and 1960s, the 1925-D was considered one of the major rarities of the Saint-Gaudens design. While still an important rarity today, the 1925-D is overshadowed by several others. Based on data in the NGC Census Report, this issue ranks 11th in certified rarity. Just seven finer MS65 examples of this issue have been seen by NGC (and one MS66). This Choice Mint State example has attractive orange-gold coloration, with sharp design features and frosty luster. Noticeable marks are limited to Liberty's drapery and the field near the base of the torch.
