<Our item number 107136><B>1925-S &#36;20 St. Gaudens. PCGS graded MS-62.</B> Mostly untoned. If you are thinking of acquiring some examples of the rare mintmarked Saint-Gaudens double eagles from the 1920s in this sale, try this attractive 1925-S on for size. The fit should be perfect. The present choice coin is perhaps the rarest among the non-key dates &#40;1920-S, 1921, and 1927-D are so expensive they almost require a co-signer to purchase&#41;, and, indeed, the 1925-S is well-known to this series. Differing from other issues of this type like the 1924-D, 1925-D, and 1926-S, the 1925-S is found most often circulated, a fact that makes the frosty BU a condition rarity as well. First-hand inspection doesn&#39;t lie: this important example is sharply struck on the main elements of the design. There is no evidence of die buckling around the peripheries that is sometimes seen. Light tawny-gold color and full, satiny luster shimmer across both sides in the presence of only the most trivial bagmarks. Graded con servatively, and a definite find for the specialist of 20th century gold. <B>Pop 63; 92 finer at PCGS.</B> <B>&#40;PCGS # 9182&#41;</B>. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;12,000-14,000. <BR><BR>Our item number 107136<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/39jpegs/107136.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/39jpegs/107136N2.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
