1925-D $20 St Gaudens Gold Double Eagle MS-64+ NGC

---

In 1925, the Denver Mint produced a run of 2,938,500 twenty-dollar gold pieces. Bearing the famous Saint-Gaudens design, these substantial coins represent a classic era of United States gold coinage, minted before the sweeping monetary changes of the early 1930s. Each piece contains 0.9675 troy ounces of pure gold within its 90 percent gold alloy. This specific specimen has survived in an exceptional state of preservation, earning a certified grade of Mint State 64+ (MS-64+). The 'D' mintmark on the coin denotes its origin from the Denver facility, making it a fascinating study for those who appreciate the artistry and production quality of early twentieth-century American branch mints.
