Select Uncirculated 1907 High Relief, Flat Rim
Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle

1907 $20 High Relief, Flat Rim MS63 PCGS. The High Relief, Flat Rim version of Augustus Saint-Gaudens' 1907 double eagle design is scarcer than its Wire Rim counterpart. The combined mintage for both types is 12,367 pieces, but the exact number of each version struck is unknown and can only be estimated based upon the ratio of Flat Rim versus Wire Rim survivors. This yields a hypothetical number of perhaps 2,500 to 3,000 Flat Rims originally produced, along with approximately 9,500 to 10,000 Wire Rims.
This is a lovely Select Uncirculated example, with the usual fine striking definition and satin finish. The softly glowing surfaces exhibit delicate lime-gold coloration. Seeming very close to near-Gem quality, this piece may have been kept from an MS64 holder only by a few minor marks that reside just below and to the left of L in LIBERTY.(Registry values: N7079)
