Lot 1478
1932. PCGS graded MS-65. Well struck and untoned. Both sides exhibit creamy soft luster which is largely undisturbed by handling marks or anything else. Although many were struck, these 1932 double eagles never left the system and when gold coins were called in by April of 1933, most of these were simply sent off to Fort Knox and soon melted, when their turn arose. Thus another key date was created by these actions as just a few 1932 double eagles had gotten into the channels of commerce before they were recalled. An extraordinary example of this prized rarity in gem condition, and one worthy of the finest collection. Only 100 examples estimated to have survived according to PCGS Pop Report. Pop 32; 12 finer, 1 in 65+, 10 in 66, 1 in 66+. (PCGS # 9194) Estimate Value $80,000 - 90,000
