- Classic High Relief Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle MCMVII (1907) Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. High Relief. Flat Rim. MS-62+ (NGC). CAC. Premium BU quality for this beautiful and eagerly sought 20th century gold issue. Fully struck, as expected, both sides exhibit razor sharp detail to the focal features. The surfaces are uncommonly smooth for the assigned grade, so much so that we would not be surprised to see this coin in a Choice Mint State holder. Vivid deep gold patina throughout with billowy mint luster. One of several opportunities in this sale for the advanced gold enthusiast to acquire a lovely Mint State example of this classic double eagle type, the coin offered here is particularly appealing as a representative of the scarcer Flat Rim variant. Noted in the numismatic community as early as 1908, the Flat Rim variety is thought to comprise only one-third of the 12,367-coin mintage for the MCMVII High Relief double eagle. Examples are often acquired alongside their Wire Rim counterparts by collectors seeking to assemble a complete set of circulation strike Saint-Gaudens twenties. PCGS# 9136. NGC ID: 26F2.
