Description

Upper-End MS64 1926-S Saint-Gaudens Twenty

1926-S $20 MS64 PCGS. CAC. Although the 1926-S double eagle was once a complete show-stopper in the Saint-Gaudens double eagle series, sufficient numbers have been repatriated from overseas that now attractive pieces are available, up through the MS64 grade, to satisfy demand. The surfaces are frosty and mattelike, with deep orange-gold patina and excellent eye appeal. Light striking softness on the last two digits of the date is undistracting. PCGS has certified 31 coins finer (3/10).
