1908-D $20 St Gaudens Gold Double Eagle No Motto MS-64 PCGS
In 1908, the Denver Mint produced a run of 663,750 Gold Double Eagles featuring the iconic Saint-Gaudens design. This particular issue is highly notable for what is missing from its design. It belongs to the "No Motto" variety, meaning it does not carry the inscription "In God We Trust" which was later restored to the series. Struck from 90 percent pure gold, this twenty-dollar denomination contains 0.9675 troy ounces of precious metal. The Denver origin is marked by the "D" mint mark on the coin. This specific specimen has been preserved in remarkable condition, certified by professional graders at a high-quality Mint State 64 (MS-64). It offers a fascinating look at a brief moment in United States coinage history when the traditional motto was absent from the design.
