Jeff Garrett writes, "The 1927 Double Eagle is the second most common date of the series....This date makes an excellent candidate for a type coin. The production quality for this issue is outstanding and Gem examples of this date are among the best for the series." 

This is a breathtakingly gorgeous specimen. David Akers writes, "The 1927 is one of the most attractive issues of the series in terms of lustre, color and overall appearance.
