Description
1924 $20 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle, NGC MS-66. This exceptional 1924 $20 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle represents one of the most iconic designs in American coinage history. The obverse features Augustus Saint-Gaudens' celebrated Liberty figure striding forward with torch held high, while the reverse displays an eagle in flight above a shield—a composition that has captivated collectors for over a century. As a pre-1933 gold issue, this coin carries both numismatic and historical significance as a product of America's final era of circulating gold coinage. The coin has been certified by NGC as MS-66, indicating exceptional preservation with only minor surface imperfections visible under magnification. At this grade level, the coin displays full original luster and sharp detail throughout, with the high points of Liberty's form and the eagle's plumage well-defined. The 1924 date falls within the later production years of this beloved series, and examples in this condition represent the upper echelon of available specimens. NGC Certification #6061301007
