1909/8 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. FS-301. MS-64+ (NGC). CAC. Lustrous light yellow gold with bold cartwheels on both sides. A few minor marks account for the grade, but we have certainly seen pieces graded higher that did not look this clean in hand. An excellent example of this desirable overdate, the boldest overdate of the 20th century. The exact mintage is unknown for this variant but very few gems are known. Just 16 examples have been graded finer by NGC, a rather small number considering the popularity of the Saint-Gaudens series.
