1908-S $20 St Gaudens Gold Double Eagle AU-53 PCGS
In 1908, the United States Mint branch in San Francisco struck a remarkably small run of the twenty dollar gold denomination. This specific Saint-Gaudens Gold Double Eagle, featuring the year 1908 on its face, represents a highly sought-after issue from that West Coast facility, denoted by the subtle 'S' mint mark. Only 22,000 of these gold pieces were struck in total, making it one of the scarcer production runs in the entire Saint-Gaudens series. This coin has been certified in About Uncirculated 53 (AU-53) condition, preserving the intricate details of a design that remains a high point of American numismatic art. Composed of 90 percent gold, the coin contains 0.9675 troy ounces of precious metal.
