Here is an excellent piece to be included in the collection of a sophisticated numismatist. PCGS has graded 117 in MS64+ with a mere 4 finer (all in MS65). In CAC, there are 100 in MS64/64+ with just 1 finer.
The 1920 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle features Liberty on the obverse, standing amid sun rays with a torch in one hand and an olive branch in the other. The reverse shows a flying eagle above "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "TWENTY DOLLARS." Augustus Saint-Gaudens designed this motif in 1907, incorporating Roman numerals for the date and subtle stars.
Jeff Garrett writes, "The 1920 Double Eagle is the ultimate condition rarity of the series. In grades of MS 60 to MS 63 the dates trade for little or no premium above that of the most common issues. An MS 65 example of the 1920 is extremely rare and seldom offered. There are no MS 66 examples graded by either service."
