Saint-Gaudens Double Eagles
1920 $20 MS64 PCGS. Much of the 1920 double eagle's relatively low mintage (slightly exceeding 228,000 pieces) escaped the melting pot and was saved by contemporary collectors, as thousands are extant through MS63. The population drops markedly in MS64, but even these can be acquired. Numerically finer coins are excessively rare, however, with only one Gem reported by PCGS (6/17). The lustrous yellow-gold surfaces of this near-Gem exhibit sharply struck devices, including Liberty's fingers and head and the Capitol building.
Ex: FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2015), lot 7808.
