Description

Attractive Near-Gem 1926-S Double Eagle

1926-S $20 MS64 NGC. This orange-gold near-Gem has exemplary luster and a sharp strike. Marks are refreshingly minimal, save for a solitary faint curved impression on the sun. The 1926-S is among the postwar issues that have generous mintages but are nonetheless rare. Most of the mintage never left Treasury vaults, unlike the 1926, which is plentiful in Mint State despite a much lower mintage than the 1926-S.(Registry values: N2998)
