Lot 908
Double Eagle. 1926-D. PCGS graded MS-63. A choice Brilliant Uncirculated example exhibiting full golden-orange mint bloom color. A scattering of light contact marks, none unsightly or worthy of mention. A very rare coin lacking from most collections.
Despite the 1926-D's seemingly high coinage total, few were saved at the time and most went into the melting pots after April 15, 1933. In fact, prior to the mid 1950's when a handful of 'uncs' were found in a French bank, this date was virtually unheard of in Mint State.
