Description

1922-S Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. MS-63 (PCGS). CAC.

Dominant orange-gold color lightens to more of a rose-gold shade toward the center of the reverse. Lustrous and frosty throughout with a well executed strike for a San Francisco Mint double eagle. Although readily obtainable in comparison to many other mintmarked double eagles from the 1920s and 1930s, the 1922-S is a scarce issue in its right that represents a significant find in all Mint State grades. The CAC sticker is complete, but with much of the hologram portion chipped away. The PCGS cert ID# does check out in the CAC database, however, making this coin a candidate for restickering, should the winning bidder decide to pursue that option directly with CAC.

PCGS# 9174. NGC ID: 26G4.

From the Collection of Dr. Gregory D. Jay.
