Description: This 2009 double eagle $20 coin is a valuable addition to any coin collection. It is the very best The United States Mint offers. The coin comes with a beautifully crafted polished wood display box, certificate of authenticity and purity, and a US Mint 48-page description collector's hard-cover book. The coin was minted by the U.S. - West Point Mint and is certified by the US Mint. It is highly crafted of precious 24-karat .9999 pure gold. Pure 24-karat gold is much more malleable than 22-karat or 90% gold coins, making it better material for striking the ultra high relief. This elegant coin, designed by Saint-Gaudens, is a sought-after proven investment and a must-have for any bullion enthusiast or coin collecting connoisseur. BackgroundThe 2009 Ultra High Relief Double Eagle Gold Coin shows the Nation and the world the very best the United States Mint has to offer. The 21st century vision of the United States Mint, combined with technological advances, enabled the United States Mint to realize the previously unattainable goal of making the coin accessible to all Americans.Through 21st century technology and the vision of Director Ed Moy, original Saint-Gaudens coin plasters were digitally mapped by the United States Mint. Using the digital design and die-making process, the Saint-Gaudens sculpture—in ultra high relief—has been updated to reflect the year 2009, an additional four stars to represent the current 50 states, and the inscription “In God We Trust,” which was not on the 1907 version.Additionally, a small border was added for a more consistent edge. The 2009 coin is made of 24-karat gold. Pure 24-karat gold is much more malleable than 22-karat or 90% gold coins, making it better material for striking the ultra high relief.
