- This is a breathtakingly beautiful example that really needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. Virtually pristine, the surfaces are bathed in a rich blend of honey-apricot color and lovely mint luster. Wisps of pale powder blue iridescence drift toward the borders on both sides enhancing the eye appeal. Fully struck and sure to please even the most discerning collector of 20th century U.S. Mint gold coinage.<p>The 1925 is one in a string of accessible Philadelphia Mint double eagles from the mid to late 1920s, with a mintage of just over 2.8 million coins. Many examples were exported, thereby escaping melting in the United States in 1937. This issue is underrated compared to the 1924, 1927 and 1928, however, and in Superb Gem Mint State preservation the 1925 emerges as a major condition rarity. This is the finest example that we have offered in recent decades and will be just right for inclusion in a stellar gold cabinet.
