$20 Saint-Gaudens Gold Coin – .900 Fine

Product Description:
The U.S. Mint began issuing gold coins in 1795, but in 1933, during the Great Depression, President Franklin D. Roosevelt issued an executive order requiring Americans to surrender all monetary gold. Millions of gold coins—including Saint-Gaudens Double Eagles—were melted into bars, drastically reducing the surviving population.

Because of this destruction, Pre-1933 U.S. gold coins today exist in strictly limited, fixed supply, making them highly desirable among collectors and investors.

About the $20 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle Design

Widely regarded as the most beautiful U.S. coin ever minted, the Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle was created by world-renowned sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens at the request of President Theodore Roosevelt, who sought to elevate American coinage to the level of fine art.
