Description
# 1927 Saint-Gaudens $20 Gold Double Eagle. PCGS MS-65. A stunning example of one of the most collectible Pre-1933 U.S. Gold Coins from the iconic Saint-Gaudens series. This Philadelphia Mint double eagle represents the pinnacle of early 20th-century American numismatic artistry, struck during the golden age of U.S. coinage. Graded a pristine *PCGS MS-65*, this specimen showcases exceptional mint state preservation with remarkable eye appeal. The coin exhibits the characteristic rich greenish-yellow gold coloration that makes the 1927 issue particularly desirable among collectors. Struck from a total mintage of 2,946,750 pieces, this example represents a well-preserved specimen from a relatively abundant year in the Saint-Gaudens double eagle series. The technical specifications are quintessential of the series: composed of 90% gold and 10% copper, weighing 33.4 grams with a 34mm diameter and lettered edge. With a population of only 7,413 coins graded higher, this *MS-65* represents a significant numismatic treasure. The coin features the legendary Augustus Saint-Gaudens design, widely considered the most beautiful in American coinage history, with extraordinary strike quality and exceptional frosty, satiny surfaces typical of the 1927 vintage. Numismatic Highlights: - Mint State 65 by PCGS. - Certificate #40623182. - Philadelphia Mint. - Exceptional eye appeal. - Rich gold coloration. - Sharply struck surfaces. Estimate: $4,000-$4,500
