Losbeschreibung

1924-D Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. MS-63 (NGC). Here is a highly desirable Choice Mint State example of this key date double eagle issue. Vivid rose-orange color dominates the appearance and delivers strong eye appeal. Well struck overall, the focal features are near-fully rendered and there is full, frosty mint luster. Far scarcer than a mintage of 3,049,500 pieces might imply, the 1924-D is one of many late date Saint-Gaudens double eagles that suffered a high rate of attrition through melting during the late 1930s. Several thousand examples were exported, however, and repatriations in recent decades account for the vast majority of survivors. With Gems prohibitively rare, this upper end MS-63 represents a particularly significant opportunity for advanced gold enthusiasts. PCGS# 9178. NGC ID: 26G8.
