1907 $20 Flat Edge High Relief MS64 PCGS Saint Gaudens Gold Double Eagle
The 1907 Twenty dollar gold double eagle is part of a series of Saint Gaudens gold double eagle coins struck from 1907-1908. The specific variety is High Relief. Struck in Philadelphia and designated as a Business (MS) strike, this coin is made of 90% gold; 10% copper from a mintage of 12,367 struck.
The flat rim $20s are much scarcer than the wire rim Saints, the latter having been caused unintentionally by -- loose retaining collar and the multiple, high-tonnage blows to bring up the design on each of these coins. While flat rim $20s are not necessarily rare, they are certainly much scarcer than their wire rim counterparts. Beware when buying flat rim $20s that they are not misrepresented wire rims. While many circulated wire rim Saints may appear to have flat rims, bona fide flat rim pieces have raised lines on the flattish edge running parallel to the rim.
Obverse: Liberty is portrayed standing on a rock, holding a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left. The word LIBERTY appears on the top periphery surrounded by stars. The date is stamped on the right side of the coin, just above the rock.
Reverse: A crescent sun appears at the bottom as if rising on the horizon with long rays extending to the top of the coin. A flying eagle covers the central portion, atop the rays. The words UNITED STATES oF AMERICA, TWENTY DOLLARS appear on the top periphery.
