Lot 2623
1907 $20 St. Gaudens. High relief, wire rim. PCGS graded MS-63. Smooth golden yellow with satiny finish and softly imbued luster. An enjoyable example of what may be the most artistically innovative concept of all regular issue U.S. coin designs. Regarding the present MS63, the strike is sharp, marks of consequence are quite simply, inconsequential, and the eye appeal is steady for the assigned grade. Though not rare, this popular MCMVII double eagle issue is in perpetual demand by collectors, which tends to lift the price in any "up" market scenario. That explains why the desirability is at nearly fever pitch currently. Uniquely beautiful, uniquely positioned to please by its depth of design and other outstanding qualities (PCGS # 9135) .
Estimated Value $18,000 - 19,000.
