Description

1925-S Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. AU-58 (PCGS).

A bright, vivid, medium gold example with plenty of luster remaining on both sides. The 1925-S is a high mintage (3,776,500 pieces) double eagle that is surprisingly scarce in all grades. Numismatic scholars believe that much of the mintage remained in government storage until destroyed through melting in 1937. Interestingly, this is one of the few key date issues from the later Saint-Gaudens series that is seen just as frequently in circulated grades as it is in Mint State.

PCGS# 9182. NGC ID: 26GC.
