Description

Frosty 1925-D Saint-Gaudens, MS64

1925-D $20 MS64 PCGS. This piece ranks as a personal favorite on the present cataloger's list of personal favorites in this sale, a combination of the lovely sunset-orange surfaces with tinges of hazel-gray, the frosty, mattelike surfaces, and a relative paucity of mentionable distractions, large or small. The strike is sharp but less than full, and the often-seen die crack through the eagle's beak and the left periphery is noted. Another high-mintage issue made rare by the subsequent meltings of the 1930s, when most of the mintage was obliterated. As of this writing (8/07), PCGS has certified only six coins finer: four MS65s and two MS66s.(Registry values: N4719)
