<B>1911 $20 MS66 PCGS.</B></I> The 1911 double eagle, like other Philadelphia-Mint issues from this period, is very scarce in MS65 grades or finer. The higher availability of lower Mint State coins is due to the discovery of a large hoard that is cited by David Akers (1998): "In recent years, a substantial number of decent quality Mint State specimens have appeared on the market from one large hoard, but most of them are only Choice Uncirculated or lower grade specimens."<BR> This Premium Gem example displays bright peach-gold color on highly lustrous surfaces that are somewhat granular, as is typical for the issue. A sharp strike characterizes the design elements, including bold definition on the Capitol building and Liberty's face, hands, and foot. Population: 10 in 66, 0 finer (11/06).<BR><I>From The Kutasi Collection.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
