The 1927 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle stands out among twentieth-century U.S. gold coins for its combination of high technical quality and beauty. PCGS has graded 7,015 as MS66 with 414 finer.
Jeff Garrett writes, "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."
David Akers writes, "The 1927 is one of the most attractive issues of the series in terms of lustre, color and overall appearance.... Most examples are very sharply struck with fully frosty or soft satiny surfaces .... The lustre and color are usually excellent to outstanding..."
Examples graded MS-66 by PCGS display sharp, well-executed strikes with Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ soaring Liberty and eagle designs rendered in crisp detail. The surfaces typically show booming cartwheel luster with light golden-orange color and only the faintest contact marks visible under magnification. The typical 1927 is noticeably cleaner and more lustrous than most dates from the 1922–1928 series.
