Description

1915-S $20 Gold Double Eagle, NGC MS-66. This exceptional 1915-S Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle represents a premium example of one of America's most iconic gold coins. Struck at the San Francisco Mint during the final years of regular twenty-dollar gold piece production, this piece exhibits the artistic brilliance of Augustus Saint-Gaudens' celebrated design, featuring Lady Liberty in full stride on the obverse and an eagle in flight on the reverse. Graded MS-66 by NGC (Certificate #8703378002), this specimen displays outstanding eye appeal with lustrous surfaces and minimal contact marks consistent with the grade. The 1915-S is a moderately scarce date in the Saint-Gaudens series, particularly in higher Mint State grades, making this MS-66 example a desirable acquisition for both type collectors and date specialists. The coin retains its original mint luster and exhibits the warm, rich coloration characteristic of early twentieth-century San Francisco Mint gold coinage. As a pre-1933 gold coin, this Double Eagle represents a significant piece of American numismatic and monetary history, struck during a transformative period in U.S. coinage. The combination of the scarcer San Francisco mintmark, strong technical grade, and aesthetic appeal makes this an attractive offering for serious collectors of classic U.S. gold coins.
