Lot 2596
1924-S $20 St. Gaudens. PCGS graded MS-63 PQ. Nice frosty example with some scattered marks on Liberty as usual for this grade. Pop 128; 125 in 64, 2 in 65; 1 in 67 (PCGS # 9179) .
Decades ago, the heavily melted '24-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 '24-D. Survivors tend to range in grade from AU 58 to MS63.
Estimated Value $6,000 - 7,000.
