1922-S $20 St Gaudens Gold Double Eagle MS-61 PCGS (CAC)
The 1922-S gold double eagle represents a high point in American numismatic art, carrying a face value of twenty dollars and containing 0.9675 troy ounces of pure gold. This specific piece has been certified in Mint State 61 condition, preserving the intricate details of a design that was struck during the classic era of United States gold coinage spanning from 1907 to 1933. On the obverse, the figure of Lady Liberty is captured in mid-stride, moving forward with determination. She holds a lit torch in one hand to guide the way, while her other hand clasps an olive branch. The reverse of the coin shifts focus to the natural world, displaying a majestic bald eagle captured mid-flight. Augustus Saint-Gaudens created these powerful visuals, which are accompanied by the traditional inscriptions 'United States of America', 'Twenty Dollars', and the motto 'In God We Trust'.
