<B>1909/8 $20 MS62 PCGS.</B></I> A comparison of the two 9s in the date makes the overdate completely obvious: The first 9 is pointed while the second 9 is blunt and rounded, coming up to meet the top loop as the "remainder of a good 8" should. Also, a second "hole" appears in the top loop, where the opening in the 8 is apparently a bit smaller than the opening of the 9. This piece offers beautiful luster over somewhat hazy yellow-gold fields. (Note: an interesting, tiny, raised die line crosses the lower part of the O in GOD, northwest to southeast, a possible die marker for the variety.)<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Augustus Saint-Gaudens<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
