<B>1909/8 $20 MS64 PCGS.</B></I> Most examples of this overdate certified at PCGS grade a shade less than Uncirculated, 59.2 grade points to be exact. At the Choice Mint State grade level the population falls off sharply to only a few dozen pieces, with a handful finer. Created from a die in preparation that was impressed with 1908- <I>and</B></I> 1909-dated hubs between annealings, the 1909/8 overdate has remained popular ever since its "rediscovery" in the 1940s. This popularity is due, no doubt, in equal parts to the numismatic fascination with overdates in general and the collecting public's love of Augustus Saint-Gaudens' enduring design, which continues today--more or less--on the American Eagle gold coins.<BR> The present example offers lustrous orange-gold surfaces with a premium appearance, limited from a Gem grade by a few small, undistracting abrasions on Liberty's torso and in the left obverse field. Population: 77 in 64, 18 finer (2/07).<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
