3687: 1915-S $20 MS66 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Fox. San Francisco
1915-S $20 MS66 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Fox. San Francisco Mint production of double eagles was robust in 1915 and 1916, in part because Federal Reserve Notes were supposed to be backed by two-thirds of their value in U.S. gold coin. While gold bullion was converted primarily to bars, gold coin from Australia, Japan, and China was melted in large quantity for double eagles. This satiny 1915-S Saint-Gaudens twenty is tied for finest at PCGS. The smooth, unabraded Premium Gem surfaces display dazzling, rich-gold color and earn the important CAC endorsement. CAC: 19 in 66, 0 finer (6/20). From The Rollo Fox Collection of $20 Saint-Gaudens Gold, Part III. HID03101062020 © 2020 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
