Description
Impressive MCMVII High Relief Twenty, PR64
Wire Rim
1907 $20 High Relief PR64 NGC. From an unknown, but
undoubtedly small mintage, the proof High Relief Saint-Gaudens
double eagles have intrigued numismatists since they were first
discovered almost 60 years ago. The issue represents the highest
achievement of the coiner's art, and examples are considered
numismatic treasures by the few collectors lucky enough to possess
one.The present coin has the well known wire rim feature, with rich satiny surfaces, and an extremely sharp strike. The characteristic raised, swirling die-polishing lines are evident on both sides. The surfaces are enhanced by an attractive yellow-gold color, with just a hint of the reddish patina usually seen on High Reliefs. Overall visual appeal is outstanding. Census: 83 in 64, 71 finer (6/09).
From The Bay State Collection, Part Two.
