1925 $20

Coin / United States of America / 1925 / Philadelphia / $20 Saint Gaudens Gold / $20 (Twenty Dollars)

The 1925 Saint-Gaudens $20 is a common coin that is widely available up through at least MS64, with Gems in the MS65 regularly encountered in the marketplace, though perhaps not quite with the frequency of the 1924, 1927, or 1928 Philadelphia-minted $20s. Examples in MS66 are relatively scarce and pieces grading higher are rare.
