1913 $20 MS64 PCGS Saint Gaudens Gold Double Eagle
The 1913 Twenty dollar gold double eagle is part of a series of Saint Gaudens gold double eagle coins struck from 1908-1933. Struck in Philadelphia and designated as a Business (MS) strike, this coin is made of 90% gold; 10% copper from a mintage of 168,780 struck.
The 1913 Philadelphia-minted Saint-Gaudens $20 is scarce as an issue, though lower-grade pieces are, unsurprisingly, much more common than better examples. Many pieces are heavily bagmarked, making any specimens higher than about MS63 exceptionally scarce. Gems are extremely rare, and only a handful are known -- all selling at massive premiums.
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.
