1928 $20

Description

1928 $20 Gold Double Eagle, NGC MS-66. This 1928 Saint-Gaudens $20 gold double eagle represents a desirable example from the final years of this iconic series. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint without a mintmark, this piece displays the classic design by Augustus Saint-Gaudens featuring Lady Liberty in full stride on the obverse and an eagle in flight on the reverse—imagery that defined American gold coinage for over two decades. The NGC MS-66 grade indicates this coin exhibits exceptional preservation with minimal wear and light surface marks consistent with the assigned grade. At this quality level, the strike details remain sharp, and the luster demonstrates the full appeal expected of a high-grade specimen from this era. The 1928 date falls within the later production years of the Saint-Gaudens series, before coinage suspension in 1933, making all surviving examples important pieces of American numismatic history. Pre-1933 gold coins remain highly sought by collectors and investors alike, valued for their historical significance, precious metal content, and enduring appeal as tangible assets. This well-preserved example offers both numismatic and intrinsic value. NGC Certification #8705137001
