| Money Metals Exchange proudly offers the $20 Saint Gaudens Pre-1933 Double Eagle coin: https://www.moneymetals.com/twenty-dollar-st-gaudens-us-gold-coin/33?utm_source=silo&utm_medium=youtube&utm_campaign=gold-coins-for-sale
The backstory to this coin’s design is very intriguing. President Theodore Roosevelt was inspired by an exhibition of ancient Greek coins at the Smithsonian. He felt as though American coins lacked style and beauty compared to the Grecian coins. In 1907, President Roosevelt chose famous American sculptor Augustus Saint Gaudens for the job. Saint Gaudens would pass shorty thereafter finishing the design. The 1933 double eagle would be the last of its kind. Many consider the Saint Gaudens Double Eagle the most beautiful coin in history. ABOUT THE DESIGN Striding Liberty (obverse) – The obverse gets its design directly from Saint Gauden’s original sculpture of the General William T. Sherman monument in Central Park, New York City. It shows Lady Liberty walking while holding a torch and olive branch. The design would later be reused for the American Gold Eagle obverse as well. Soaring Eagle (reverse) – The reverse design features an American eagle flying above the sun and its rays. Please note that Money Metals would absolutely not be offering pre-1933 gold coins if it were not for the attractive bullion-like premiums (https://youtu.be/tyGEOdt5BKM). Right now, these antique coins are super cheap, and whatever premiums that existed in the past have essentially evaporated. With Pre-1933 St. Gaudens gold coins investors get the advantage of super-low premiums along with its beauty and quality.
