1924 $20 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle, NGC MS-66

This impressive 1924 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle represents one of the most beloved gold coin designs in American numismatic history. The obverse features Augustus Saint-Gaudens' iconic Liberty figure in full stride, while the reverse displays an eagle in flight—a design that has captivated collectors for over a century. As a pre-1933 gold issue, this piece carries both historical significance and intrinsic value as a representative example of America's golden age of coinage.

The coin has been graded NGC MS-66, indicating exceptional preservation with minimal wear and attractive eye appeal. At this grade level, the coin displays full original luster and strike detail consistent with careful handling since its issue more than a century ago. The 1924 date places this piece within the final decade of Saint-Gaudens double eagle production, making it a desirable addition to any collection of classic U.S. gold coinage.

As a pre-1933 double eagle, this coin represents the standard gold currency of the period and remains highly sought by both date collectors and type collectors alike. The MS-66 grade places this example in the upper echelon of survivors, offering both numismatic merit and the tangible appeal of nearly an ounce of .900 fine gold.
