This 1908 $20 Saint-Gaudens Gold Double Eagle is a rare and highly prized coin, certified MS65 by NGC. Known for its stunning canary-gold luster, satiny surfaces, and sharply defined design, it is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful and iconic coins in U.S. history. The No Motto version is particularly significant for collectors, as it was produced before the addition of the "In God We Trust" motto on the reverse.
