<Our item number 109166><B>1925-S &#36;20 St. Gaudens. PCGS graded MS-63.</B> Mostly untoned. The heavily attrition suffered by the 1925-S Saint-Gaudens accounts for so few Mint States; it is one of the few branch mint issues from the 1920s that in point of fact circulated to any substantial degree. When offered, the grade is most apt to be Extremely Fine or About Uncirculated grades. Even marginal MS60-61 quality Uncirculated pieces are seen far less often than their lightly circulated counterparts in contrast to, say 1922-S, 1926-S. This Choice Mint State 63 example far excels what is normally offered for the &#39;25-S, being lustrous under a uniform array of faint orange gold to bright gold patina. We note a touch of softness on the lower stars on the obverse, but surface marks are minimal for the assigned grade while the overall aesthetic appeal is far up the scale. <B>Pop 68; 24 finer.</B> <B>&#40;PCGS # 9182&#41;</B>. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;18,000-20,000. <BR><BR>Our item number 109166<BR><IMAGES><P A LIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/41jpegs/109166.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/41jpegs/109166N2.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
