MCMVII (1907) Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. High Relief. Wire Rim. MS-62 (PCGS).
This classic double eagle rarity hails from an era that numismatic researcher Roger W. Burdette has named the Renaissance of American Coinage. Inspired by President Theodore Roosevelt and designed by famed sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, the High Relief $20 of 1907 is perhaps the flagship issue of this important period in U.S. Mint history. With sharply rendered design elements executed in impressively high relief, the offered coin allows full appreciation of the type. Vivid golden-yellow surfaces are satiny in texture and pleasingly smooth relative to the assigned grade. A beautiful specimen eagerly awaiting inclusion in an advanced cabinet.
