1908 $20 St. Gaudens. With Motto
1650
1907. Flat Relief, Arabic Numerals. PCGS graded MS-66.
Lovely
rich golden toning. This is the first style released after the High Relief
designs, with not nearly the incredible three dimensional devices, but
a far more practicle and useful example of a coin that could be mass
produced for circulation. Rarely are these 1907 double eagles found so
well preserved, and a date which is quite difficult to obtain any finer.
Pop 383; 35 finer (PCGS # 9141)
Estimated Value ...................................................... $3,500 - 4,000
Ex. US Gold from a prominent midwestern family collection.

.
Quite lustrous and very attractive. This
style was not saved in large numbers nor did these turn up in any large hoards, hence gems like this
are few and far between especially so with the “+” grade and CAC approval! If you want a high quality,
high appeal specimen for your collection, then look no further than this amazing 1908 With Motto double
eagle.
