Noteworthy MS65 1926-S Double Eagle

1926-S $20 MS65 PCGS. Though the double eagles of Philadelphia would achieve wide international distribution with coins dated through 1928, by 1924, most branch mint double eagles languished on government property. While a handful of 1926-S twenties have been repatriated, total survivors represent a minuscule fraction of the over 2 million pieces originally struck. The present piece is well-detailed at the edges despite a degree of typical beveling close to the rims. Its luster and eye appeal are both strong, even by Gem standards. The 1926-S is a condition rarity in Gem and virtually unavailable any finer. Population: 28 in 65, 2 finer (6/08).
