Description

Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle

1914 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. MS-64+ (PCGS).

The frosty golden-wheat complexion is accented by scattered orange patina. A razor sharp strike and uncommonly smooth Choice Mint State surfaces contribute to the excellent eye appeal. The 1914 boasts a paltry circulation strike mintage of 95,250 pieces, survivors of which are on the scarce side in the context of the Saint-Gaudens double eagle series. In an absolute sense, however, this issue is readily obtainable through the basal MS-64 level. Beginning in MS-64+, as here, the 1914 develops into a conditionally rare issue. This is an outstanding near-Gem that would serve as a highlight in an advanced collection. Just 48 coins have been graded finer by PCGS.

PCGS# 9164. NGC ID: 26FS.

Estimate: $ 4500
