<B>1924 $20 MS67 PCGS.</B></I> The 1924 is one of the most widely available gold issues struck by any nation; figures from Garrett and Guth (2006) list a combined certified population of over 400,000 pieces, with untold others uncertified and outside the official figures. Unsurprisingly, the 1924 has become a popular type issue, with Choice and Gem pieces as the most popular choices.<BR> For the type or date enthusiast with an emphasis on high grade, however, a "mere" MS65 coin will not do; a piece such as the present Superb Gem is in order. Both sides offer powerful, swirling luster, and the orange-gold outer areas yield to paler straw-gold in the centers. The strike is sharp, and the overall quality is seemingly unimprovable. PCGS has graded only one finer example (11/07).<BR><I>From The Jacob Collection of Saint-Gaudens Double Eagles.</B></I><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>)
