"MCMVI" (1906) Saint-Gaudens Winged Liberty, GOLD "DOUBLE EAGLE" Concept, one troy oz 999
|
Item Number: ASG_MCMVI_Au
|
Reverse with "DOUBLE EAGLE" in place of "TWENTY DOLLARS".
Edge marked "999 GOLD".
Augustus Saint-Gaudens' original sketch for his iconic Double Eagle design featured a Winged Liberty figure holding a shield. Using as much of the sculpture as possible from an actual coin, the relief was increased and wings and shield were added by Daniel Carr. This concept shows what the original version might have looked like if carried to fruition.
Size: 34.0mm. Composition: .999 Gold. Weight: One troy oz. Edge: Smooth (with imprinted lettering). Finish: Satin. Final Mintage: See Home page.

This DE in gold is amazing - love the wire edge. Looking forward to seeing the 1933 version.
