The 1922 Saint-Gaudens $20 is a very common coin in grades up through at least MS63, though the coin becomes much scarcer in MS64 and decidedly scarce in grades of MS65. Examples grading MS66 or better are truly rare and realize healthy prices, especially when two or more registry set collectors are vying for the same specimen.
