1927 $20 MS66 PCGS. The 1927 double eagle, with a mint
<B>1927 $20 MS66 PCGS.</B></I> The 1927 double eagle, with a mintage approaching 3 million pieces, is one of the most common issues in the series. Mint State examples right through Premium Gem are readily available to collectors. The MS66 example we offer in the current lot displays apricot-gold patina imbued with traces of light green. An impressive strike has imparted nice definition on Liberty's face, fingers, and toes, and on the eagle's plumage. A few minute bagmarks hidden within the eagle's feathers prevent what may be an even higher grade. PCGS has seen only 12 examples finer, and NGC 31 pieces grading higher.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
