1924-S ST. GAUDENS $20 NGC MS65

The 1924-S ST. GAUDENS $20, certified MS65 by NGC, is an appealing example within its respective series. A pleasing presentation comes through satiny luster; high-grade preservation, with the assigned grade supporting the overall quality. San Francisco double eagles are closely tied to western gold flows and the commercial banking needs of the post-Gold Rush economy. The issue is recognized as scarce in this level of certified preservation. Within U.S. gold, the piece stands out for the balance of grade, history, and specific issue scarcity.
