Saint-Gaudens Double Eagles
1916-S $20 MS66 NGC. A respectable mintage of 796,000 Saint-Gaudens double eagles was accomplished at the San Francisco Mint in 1916, but the United States suspended coinage of twenty dollar gold pieces the following year, upon the country's entrance into World War I. The 1916-S is scarce in MS66 condition and finer coins are virtually unobtainable. This delightful Premium Gem is sharply detailed and impeccably preserved, with vibrant mint luster throughout. NGC has graded only three numerically finer examples (3/17).
