Description

1928 $20 Gold Double Eagle, PCGS MS-66. This exceptional 1928 $20 gold double eagle represents a desirable example from the final years of regular U.S. gold coinage production. Graded MS-66 by PCGS (Certificate #06611958), this coin exhibits the qualities collectors seek in pre-1933 gold: strong luster, well-preserved surfaces, and excellent eye appeal characteristic of the higher Mint State grades. The 1928 double eagle was struck during a period of significant numismatic interest, as these coins preceded the gold recall of 1933. This particular specimen's MS-66 designation indicates exceptional preservation with only light, inconsequential contact marks visible under magnification. The coin displays the iconic Saint-Gaudens obverse design featuring Liberty striding forward and the reverse eagle in flight—imagery that remains among the most celebrated in American numismatic history. As a pre-1933 gold piece in premium condition, this 1928 double eagle appeals to both type collectors and those specializing in late-date Saint-Gaudens coinage. The combination of historical significance, artistic merit, and superior preservation makes this an attractive offering for serious collectors.
