1898 $20 MS62 认证号11230036, PCGS号9033

1898 $20 MS62 Pop. (532/162) (3/13). The mintage (170,395) for the 1898 double eagle is dramatically lower than for the other Philadelphia issues of the previous few years. The result is an issue that is much scarcer and seldom seen above MS-62. An MS-64 sold for $12,650 in 2005.

The 1898 is definitely a scarce date, comparable overall to the 1877, 1878, 1888, 1889 and 1905 but not quite as rare as the others mentioned (except the 1889) in strictly uncirculated condition. Choice mint state specimens are seldom seen and true gem examples are so infrequently available that they must be considered rare.
