1915 $20 MS65 NGC. The 1915 double eagle, with a minta
<B>1915 $20 MS65 NGC.</B></I> The 1915 double eagle, with a mintage of 152,000 pieces, is readily available in grades through Mint State 64, but becomes a challenge in MS65, where only 70 or so pieces have been certified by NGC and PCGS combined. No finer examples have been seen by either service (3/07).<BR> Dazzling luster exudes from both sides of this gorgeous MS65 example, each of which is adorned with yellow-gold color, imbued with traces of orange on the obverse. A powerful strike emboldens the design elements, including sharp definition on the panes of the Capitol building, Liberty's fingers and toes, and the eagle's plumage. The few marks that do occur are inoffensive and well within the parameters of the designated grade.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
