When America’s new $20 gold coin first appeared in 1907, it was instantly hailed as a classic and a masterpiece. Designed by prominent sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, it features unmatched artistry and exceptional high-relief images showing Lady Liberty on the obverse and a dramatic flying eagle on the reverse. However, all U.S. gold coins – including $20 “Saints” – were recalled and melted by the U.S. government in 1933, leaving precious few for today’s collectors.
