Description: An absolutely gorgeous, brilliant, thick, and heavy gold coin. This is old school currency. The definition of details is nothing short of stunning. Diameter=34.1mmEdge thickness=2.023mmreeded High quality, historical, US mint, gold coins are getting harder and harder to find (and exponentially more expensive to acquire) as they are being scooped up by wealthy collectors and gold investors.

The Saint-Gaudens double eagle is a twenty-dollar gold coin, or double eagle, produced by the United States Mint from 1907 to 1933. The coin is named after its designer, the sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, who designed the obverse and reverse. It is considered by many to be the most beautiful of U.S. coins.In 1904, President Theodore Roosevelt sought to beautify American coinage, and proposed Saint-Gaudens as an artist capable of the task. Although the sculptor had poor experiences with the Mint and its chief engraver, Charles E. Barber, Saint-Gaudens accepted Roosevelt's call. The work was subject to considerable delays, due to Saint-Gaudens's declining health and difficulties because of the high relief of his design. Saint-Gaudens died in 1907, after designing the eagle and double eagle, but before the designs were finalized for production.
