1908 $20 St Gaudens Gold Double Eagle NM MS-62 PCGS (Rattler)
In 1908, the Philadelphia Mint produced a run of over four million Saint-Gaudens twenty-dollar gold coins. This specific piece, composed of 90 percent gold with nearly a full troy ounce of precious metal content (0.9675 troy ounces), represents a classic era of United States coinage. It stands out for its lack of a mint mark, which denotes its origin at the main Philadelphia facility. This specimen has been certified in Mint State 62 (MS-62) condition, preserved in an early generation holder often referred to by collectors as a rattler. The coin belongs to the famous Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle series, celebrated for its artistic design and historical significance in the pre-1933 American gold era.
