1911-S $20 St Gaudens Gold Double Eagle AU
Struck at the San Francisco Mint in 1911, this twenty dollar gold coin represents a high point in American numismatic artistry. The piece is composed of 90 percent gold, containing exactly 0.9675 troy ounces of the precious metal. Surviving in Almost Uncirculated condition, it retains much of the original luster and detail from the day it was minted over a century ago. The front of the coin showcases a powerful representation of Lady Liberty, while the reverse captures a majestic bald eagle soaring through the sky. The back also displays the country of origin, United States of America, alongside the denomination of Twenty Dollars. Rather than a standard reeded border, the edge of this coin features the raised letters of the motto E Pluribus Unum, with the words separated by stars, creating a distinctive three-dimensional design element.
