<strong>A Classic Double Eagle Rarity</strong></p>
<p>The 1931 issue, like its brethren the 1930-S, the 1931-D, and 1932, is a classic rarity issued late in the history of the Saint-Gaudens double eagle series.</p>
<p>The original mintage figure of 2.9 million-plus pieces is meaningless; the low survival rate, after the great Gold Recall of 1933, makes this issue among the rarest series issues.</p>
<p>In our The Coinage of Augustus Saint-Gaudens as Illustrated by the Phillip H. Morse Collection, we made the following comments about the 1931: &#8220;Among late date (1929-1932) issues of Saint-Gaudens double eagles, the 1931-P is probably the one with the least clearly-defined relative rarity ranking. Some numismatists rank it second in overall population rarity only to the 1930-S, a step ahead of the 1932 and 1931-D and, of course, the 1929. Others believe the 1931, while rarer than the 1929, is less available than the other three late-date issues. Our experience leads us to side with the former camp regarding the relative rarity of the 1931.&#8221;</p>
<p>The present example is not only rare in the absolute sense, but its phenomenal preservation also makes it a conditional rarity of the first order. Most of the Mint State survivors are in the ranges from MS61-MS64, although Gems are occasionally available as well. Premium Gems are another story altogether, as NGC and PCGS combined have certified 14 submissions at that level, a figure that almost certainly includes duplications.</p>
<p>Only a single coin, an MS67 PCGS example, has been certified finer at either service. This MS66 coin possesses delightfully appealing surfaces, with consistent, rich orange-gold coloration throughout. We note for pedigree purposes a couple of minor ticks on Liberty&#8217;s left (facing) thigh, and a contact mark that passes through several rays of the sun in the obverse left field.</p>
