Lot Description

Wisps of pale apricot enhance otherwise dominant orange-gold color on both sides of this handsome piece. A couple of wispy marks do little more than preclude a full Gem rating, as none are singularly distracting. One of the more eagerly sought issues in the early Saint-Gaudens double eagle series, the 1913-S boasts a limited mintage for the type of 34,000 pieces. With precious few survivors grading any finer, this endearing near-Gem is sure to see spirited bidding among astute 20th century gold collectors.
