Lot	Photo	Description	Realized
Lot 1380		1907. High relief, wire rim. NGC graded Proof 64. A nice untoned coin. Only 12,367 struck and this is considered America's most beautiful coin. The struggle to create these coins is one of the most historic battles to occur within thePhiladelphia Mint's walls. Famed sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens received the commission to redesign our country's gold coinage directly from President Teddy Roosevelt. Roosevelt had gone entirely around the Mint's staff of talented engravers and coiners. Naturally they formed a wall of resistance to coining these new, and conceptually crazy coins. They simply were not made for the modern coining presses. Furthermore, each High Relief gold coin took up to seven strikes to bring up these incredible designs. Eventually these designes were struck, but in limited numbers. These amazing High Relief coins are the closest to his original concept that most collectors can aspire to own. This splendid Gem will always turn heads and receive strong admiration from anyone who has the opportunity to see it. Pop 88; 78 finer at NGC. Estimate Value $35,000 - 40,000 View details and enlarged photos	Realized $30,550
Lot 1381		1907. High relief, Roman numerals, wire rim. PCGS graded MS-65. Light gold tone and well struck with incredible three dimensional depth, an artistic triumph what has yet to be surpassed by any coin design. These powerful features on the obverse and reverse stand tall and a testament to the genius of Augustus Saint-Gaudens, a well known sculptor of his day. However, transferring his stills as a sculptor into coin making required considerable ingenuity. His goal, and that of President Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt was achieved, that such a coin could be conceived and struck for circulation. Finding this issue in Gem grades has always been a challenge, as so few collectors could resist examining these coins, there is almost always some degree of cabinet friction and handling marks. If you have been seeking a glorious example of this treasured issue, then here is one to pursue.A coin that is always in demand.
