1911-D Saint Gaudens Double Eagle
Ranking 42nd of 53 circulation strike Saint-Gaudens double eagles in terms of total number of Mint State coins extant, the 1911-D is one of the more readily obtainable issues of the type in today's market. Most survivors grade no finer than MS-65, however, and even in MS-66 this issue is scarce by the standards of the type. Superb Gems are rare by any measure.
The example to the left was sold by Stack's Bowers Galleries in the June 2017 Baltimore Auction, where it realized $19,975.
