<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Treashunt, post: 441949, member: 6763&quot;]&quot;regarding the 1933 double eagle: &quot;Multitudinous questions about the condition of the coin were put to rest prior to the sale when four experts from the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) viewed the piece and unanimously declared it to be MS65. Because the coin is pedigreed to King Farouk and the monarch was notorious for abrasively cleaning and/or lacquering coins, there was concern that the 1933 $20 had suffered a similar fate. Fortunately that was not the case and the coin was found to be in Gem-quality condition.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>link to follow</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.pcgs.com/articles/article3509.chtml" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pcgs.com/articles/article3509.chtml" rel="nofollow">http://www.pcgs.com/articles/article3509.chtml</a></p><p><br /></p><p>[article on the 1933 Double eagle.][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
