Lot Description

1925 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. FS-801. Doubled Die Reverse. MS-65 (PCGS). Deep reddish-rose color with delicate silvery overtones that are a bit more pronounced on the reverse. Both sides are sharply struck with a full quota of frosty mint luster. The 1925 is much scarcer than then 1924 and 1928 double eagles in the finest Mint State grades, confirming the desirability of the present example for the better date gold type collector. The FS-801 attribution adds further significance, reverse doubling evident at the eagle's talon and the nearby fathers and rays. PCGS Population (FS-801 attribution only): 9; 4 finer (MS-66+ finest). PCGS# 145743. NGC ID: 26GA. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
