1911-D/D $20 RPM FS-501 MS (PCGS#145010)

The Regency Auction 36

详细说明: WOW! This is quite the impressive PQ 1911-D/D repunched mintmark double eagle. One of the few distinct die varieties in the Saint Gaudens series, collectors have long searched unattributed 1911-Ds for one. Bordering on the SUPERB GEM grade, the present coin has a great look for the date. Well struck devices stand out against frosty lustrous fields that have an almost sandblast-like texture. Rich orange-gold with lighter brilliant gold highlights. The first D was placed too far to the right, and then repunched properly. The D/D is quite bold and can be seen without the aid of a glass. As expected for the lofty, borderline SUPERB GEM grade, any traces of contact are extremely minor and almost not worth mentioning. PCGS 55, NGC 40, CAC 22. PCGS has graded just 5 in MS66+ with just a single MS67 finer (which is impounded in the Simpson Collection). The current Collectors Universe value is listed at $30,000 and we have sold two others in 2019 for $22,913 and $25,850. A real prize for any advanced die variety collector or specialist in the St. Gaudens series. Cert. Number 38157487 PCGS # 9158.00
