1922 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. MS-65 (PCGS).Original rose-gold patina blends with softly frosted luster on both sides of this originally and carefully preserved Gem. Many of the 1,375,500 double eagles that the Philadelphia Mint produced in 1922 were exported during the 1920s. These coins remained as part of foreign bank reserves until after World War Two, when they began to make their way back to the United States. Today, the 1922 is readily available in lower Mint State grades, but it is grossly underrated in MS-65 when compared to the truly common date 1924 and 1927. A find for the astute double eagle enthusiast.
