1924-D Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. MS-62 (PCGS).
Highly desirable Mint State preservation for this key date double eagle issue. Warm golden-honey color dominates the in hand appearance. Sharply struck throughout with full mint luster. Far scarcer in numismatic circles 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 or 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 solidly graded BU example represents a significant opportunity for advanced gold enthusiasts.
PCGS# 9178. NGC ID: 26G8.
