1916-S Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. MS-65 (NGC). CAC.
A handsome pinkish-apricot example with sharp striking detail and captivating mint luster. The 1916-S is the only double eagle of its date, and the final one produced prior to 1920. It is one of the more underrated early date issues in the Saint-Gaudens series. The mintage is 796,000 pieces, and Mint State survivors are rarer than those of the 1911-D, 1914-D, 1914-S and 1915-S issues. This is a desirable NGC-certified, CAC-verified Gem that is worthy of strong bids.
PCGS# 9169. NGC ID: 26FX.
