The legacy of Saint-Gaudens’ $20 Double Eagle design is profound and enduring in American numismatics. The coin is widely considered the most beautiful ever produced by the United States Mint, setting a new standard for artistic excellence in coinage design. Though the coins were last issued for circulation in 1933, the design lives on to this day in various areas of American life. Right now, 1913-S $20 Saint-Gaudens Gold Double Eagle Coins in certified condition are available at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each 1913-S $20 Saint-Gaudens Gold Double Eagle Coin available here is in a protective slab and arrives in MS61 condition. Coins with this grade exhibit an impaired mint luster with clusters of large and small contact marks throughout the field. Patches of hairlines or one continuous hairline are present without the aid of magnification.
The influence of Saint-Gaudens’ Liberty design extended beyond currency, inspiring generations of sculptors and coin designers to approach their craft with greater artistic ambition. When the U.S. Mint introduced gold bullion coins in 1986, they chose to revive Saint-Gaudens’ Liberty design for the American Gold Eagle series, ensuring that his vision continues to represent American gold coinage more than a century after its creation.
In the obverse design of 1913-S $20 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagles, you will find the front-facing effigy of Liberty. Her image is shown walking toward the viewer with a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left. The design field includes sunrays in the background and a ring of stars around the edge.
For the reverse of 1913-S Saint-Gaudens Gold Double Eagle Coins, the mint features a depiction of the eagle in left-profile relief gliding over the sun. The 1913-S Double Eagle is one of the lowest-minted coins in the Saint-Gaudens’ Double Eagle Series. Its mintage of only 34,000 coins is the third-lowest overall in the program and the second-lowest from the San Francisco Mint behind only the 1908-S.
