1926 $20 St Gaudens Gold Double Eagle MS-66 NGC
The 1926 twenty dollar gold double eagle stands as a stunning example of early twentieth-century American coinage. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, this particular issue carries no mint mark, representing the standard production of the main facility during a prosperous era. Out of an original mintage of 816,750 pieces, very few survive in exceptionally high grades, making well-preserved specimens a fascinating study for enthusiasts of historical gold. This specific coin has achieved a certified grade of Mint State 66 (MS-66), indicating an extraordinary level of preservation with original luster and minimal surface marks. Crafted from 0.900 fine gold, the coin contains 0.9675 troy ounces of precious metal. The design features the iconic motto "IN GOD WE TRUST" on its surface, integrated into a composition that remains celebrated for its artistic depth and sculptural beauty.
