1928 $20 Saint Gaudens Double Eagle PCGS MS63 (OGH)

Saint-Gaudens' masterpiece housed in a PCGS Old Green Holder!

Here is a stunning piece to include in your collection that won’t break the bank. Gold specialist David Akers writes, "For the person wanting a nearly perfect Saint-Gaudens double eagle with great 'eye-appeal,' the 1928 is the most likely issue to be available ... From an overall appearance standpoint, the 1928 is typically one of the best of the series ..."

PCGS has graded 19,289 as MS63 with 38,455 finer. Collectors Universe prices this issue at $2,700.00 in MS63. Akers continues, "The 1928 is always very sharply struck. This issue was clearly minted to a very high quality standard. The surfaces are fully frosty or slightly satiny and the lustre and color are invariably excellent."
