- Glorious Superb Gem 1927 Double Eagle
1927 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. MS-67 (NGC).
Offered is an incredibly well preserved and attractive example of this classic 20th century gold type. Intensely lustrous with a frosty finish, both sides reveal swirling cartwheel visual effects as the coin rotates under a light. Silky smooth surfaces are close to pristine, and the strike is full throughout the design.
The 1927 rivals the 1924 as the most readily obtainable Saint-Gaudens double eagle of the Motto design. Obviously many of the 2.9 million pieces struck were exported, thereby avoiding the wholesale melting of gold coins in the United States during the late 1930s. Tens of thousands of Uncirculated examples have been repatriated since the mid 20th century, primarily from European sources. These are large coins, however, and most show numerous marks and other blemishes from jostling around in bags. Examples that approach the pinnacle of numismatic preservation, as here, are rare and eagerly sought by the most discerning of gold enthusiasts.
