Lot 1679
1908 $20 St. Gaudens. No motto. NGC graded MS-66. Lovely light golden toning on both sides. Strong metal flow augments the already gemmy mint luster that covers the surfaces, giving the coin a brand new, glowing appearance. The mint brilliance is only broken up by an rare overlay of pale patina. A rounded impression is the rule for some 1908 No Motto twenties imprinted by the stamp of the Philadelphia Mint that struck this issue; we are happy to say that the present example is a grand exception to that rule in being very sharp throughout including centers (PCGS # 9142) .
Estimated Value $2,400 - 2,500.
