1924-S Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. MS-62 (PCGS).This straw-golden example displays full luster and only a minor number handling marks overall. Hints of pinkish color are noted in the protected areas. An attractive and fully original example. Decades ago, the heavily melted 1924-S double eagle was considered to be one of, if not the rarest Saint-Gaudens issue. A modest migration from Europe over the past thirty years now places this issue as a median scarcity in the series, being very similar in both overall population and condition rarity to the 1924-D. Even so, only about 700 Mint State examples are thought to survive.PCGS# 9179. NGC ID: 26G9.
