1924-S 5C MS62 PCGS #3953

1924-S 5C MS62, pop. (30/242), (3/13). Intense gold toning masks the frosty luster on both sides of this pleasing Mint State piece. The strike is somewhat lacking, although still sharper than most. Splashes of violet appear on the reverse.

1924-S 10C MS63FB PCGS #4947

1924-S 10C MS63FB Pop. 51/114, (3/13). Gold-to-gray toning is most prominent at the margins of this Select Full Bands representative. Great all-around detail, though light abrasions are also present. Housed in a green label holder.

1924-S 25C MS63, pop. (85/184), (3/13).

1924-S $1 MS63 PCGS #7364

1924-S $1 MS63 Pop. (1419/1326) (3/13).

1924 $20 MS65 PCGS #9177

1924 $20 MS65 Pop. (39,646/8,386) (3/13). This date is believed to be the most common of the entire series with a mintage of 4,232,500. Most 1924 double eagles sat out the next several decades in bank vaults in Europe. One of the finest examples graded, a lone PCGS MS-68, sold at the 2006 FUN sale for $63,750.

1924-D $20 MS62 PCGS #9178

1924-D $20 MS62 Pop. (149/352) (3/13). This 1924-D double eagle shows a dual surface texture, frosty deep reddish-orange margins yielding to some lighter yellow-gold reflectivity around the figure of Liberty and the central eagle on the reverse. An interesting and appealing example of this former great rarity in the series, certified in a green-label holder. Unlike the 1924 double eagles from the Philadelphia Mint, those from the Denver Mint sat around in the U.S. (mintage 3,049,500), with perhaps a few thousand being sent overseas for international transactions. Therefore, when the 1930's rolled around, they were still available to be turned over to the government and were promptly melted into gold bars and sent to Fort Knox. Survivors show strong luster and average strikes, but many have worn dies around the peripheries, as quality control was lacking. To date, just over a thousand examples have been certified the highest being the Carter/Duckor coin graded PCGS MS-66 that sold in early 2008 for $184,000.

1924-S $20 MS63 PCGS #9179

1924-S $20 MS63 Pop. (142/114) (7/14). In lockstep with the 1924-D double eagles, this San Francisco issue was virtually wiped out in the 1930's. Luckily for collectors, several survived in overseas banks. During the 1940's and 1950's, it was generally believed that fewer than a half dozen examples of this date existed. A few coins trickled out from Europe in the late 1950's, and by the 1960's enough had arrived to make this date available to collectors. Most seen are rather well-struck and lustrous, with the typical rounded rims seen on San Francisco coins. They are commonly found with die wear on the peripheral devices and lettering in the form of a shadowy ring. Today the population total his just shy of 1,000 coins certified in all grades. The finest certified example is a single PCGS MS-67, but the price record belongs to the PCGS MS-65 example that sold for $97,750 in 2005. Mintage: 2,922,500.
