The $20 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle holds close to a full ounce of gold and carries a design many consider the finest in American coinage. This random-year piece is certified by NGC at MS62, which makes it a practical way to own historic pre-1933 gold. Investors get recognizable bullion weight, and collectors get a genuine U.S. gold coin from a series that ended nearly a century ago.
Key Features:
- 90% gold, containing 0.9675 troy ounces of pure gold
- Struck in a gold-copper alloy for added durability
- Obverse: Liberty striding forward with a torch and olive branch
- Reverse: an eagle in flight above a radiant sun
The obverse presents Liberty walking toward the viewer, a lit torch raised in her right hand and an olive branch held in her left. Rays of sunlight spread across the field behind her, and a small rendering of the Capitol building sits near her feet at the lower left. Stars run along the border, and the whole composition stands in noticeably high relief. On the reverse, an eagle soars to the left with wings fully extended, passing above a rising sun whose rays climb into the field. “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” curves across the top, with “TWENTY DOLLARS” set along the lower edge.
The coin was designed by sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, working at the request of President Theodore Roosevelt, and the series ran from 1907 through 1933. Its sculptural depth set it apart from the flatter coinage of its day and helped make it one of the most collected American gold issues.
Each Double Eagle measures 34 mm across and weighs roughly 33.4 grams. This coin is sealed in an NGC holder graded MS62, with the label showing the $20 denomination and the certified grade. The date will vary depending on current stock, since this coin is offered as a random year.
At MS62 in a certified holder, this Double Eagle pairs real gold content with the assurance of third-party grading. Add one to your holdings while pre-1933 U.S. gold remains available.
