1911-S $20 Saint Gaudens Gold Double Eagle Pre-1933 PCGS MS65 Fresh New Holder
Recently certified and Fresh to the market. A must own low Mintage Sleeper Date, 775,750 overlooked and a must own rarity for any collection. The denomination was created as a means of exhausting an overage in gold supply due to the 1849 California Gold Rush. They were never intended for general use in commerce as the amount easily equated to a month's wage during the time of issue - making them impractical to carry as a coin. PCGS encapsulation offers protection and guarantees the MS-65 condition of the coin.
Awarded the + designation for displaying outstanding eye appeal and premium quality for the grade. A better date San Francisco Mint date rarely seen in high grade like this. Obverse: Depicts Liberty striding forward holding a torch and an olive branch with the U. Capitol building in the backdrop.
Reverse: Features an eagle in flight against the sun in the background. Beautiful true orange gold color and rare in this high grade condition.
