1914 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. Proof-62 (NGC).

1914 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. Proof-62 (NGC).，Medium yellow gold with a light olive glow. The surfaces of this attractive Sand Blast Proof show more granularity than typical for the type, as is usually seen for the year. The resulting effect is one of innumerable points of yellow brilliance which spring to life in a bright light source. Scattered tiny mishandling marks are found under low magnification, though very few of these distract an unaided eye. One of 70 proofs of the date produced with the Sand Blast or "Matte" finish, though less than half that figure are known today. When first produced, the Sand Blast finish proofs were met with unfavorable collecting enthusiasm, though today they are highly coveted and eagerly sought after. A pleasing coin with bold eye appeal for the grade, and with the likelihood to produce intense bidding activity -- be prepared to bid strongly here.<p>，，
