- Scarce Mint State 1908-S Double Eagle 1908-S Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. MS-60 (PCGS). CAC. Scarce and desirable Mint State preservation for this key date 20th century gold issue. Vivid color in deep rose-gold, both sides also sport full mint luster in a softly frosted texture. Well produced with sharply rendered design elements, this handsome BU example is sure to catch the eye of advanced gold enthusiasts. The 1908-S is one of very few Saint-Gaudens double eagles that is encountered more often circulated than Uncirculated. Given that only 22,000 pieces were produced - one of the lowest mintages for circulation strikes of this type - survivors are certainly elusive at all levels of preservation. Q. David Bowers provides an estimate of 400 to 600 coins in all Mint State grades in his 2004 Guide Book of Double Eagles, published by Whitman. This is a limited total by the standards of the Saint-Gaudens series, confirming the significance of this offering. PCGS# 9149. NGC ID: 26FA. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
