Product Details

The Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle is often viewed as one of the most notable coins produced by the United States Mint. Struck in nearly one ounce of .900 fine gold, it has been admired for both its design and historical context for many years. Commissioned by President Theodore Roosevelt and sculpted by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, it represents a key moment in U.S. coin design. This 1920 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle represents the first issue after World War I and features a Mint State 63 grade from the Professional Coin Grading Service. Today, certified 1920 Pre-33 $20 Saint-Gaudens Gold Double Eagle Coins are available at Bullion Metals.

The 1920 Philadelphia Double Eagle was struck with a mintage of 228,250 coins, making it one of the scarcer issues of the post-WWI period and a coin whose rarity is amplified by the fact that most examples were either melted in the 1933 gold recall or held in government vaults for decades before reaching the collector market. Its low surviving population across all grades gives the 1920 a significance within the series well beyond what its original mintage might suggest, making it a prized acquisition for serious Saint-Gaudens collectors.

All 1920 Pre-33 $20 Saint-Gaudens Gold Double Eagle Coins available in this listing carry a Mint State 63 grade. At this level, coins generally display strong eye appeal, even with some minor reduction in mint luster. Expect a range of small contact marks, as well as a limited number of heavier, more visible marks. Any hairlines that are present should be noticeable to the naked eye.

The reverse of the 1920 Pre-33 Saint-Gaudens Gold Double Eagle shows an American eagle flying above a rising sun. This naturalistic design replaced earlier, more formal representations of the eagle.
