History

The history of the St. Gaudens Double Eagle Certified MS64 CAC (Dates/Types Vary) begins in 1905 when President Theodore Roosevelt sought to revitalize the nation's coinage design. He enlisted the renowned sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens to create new designs for the $10 and $20 gold coins. Unfortunately, Saint-Gaudens passed away in 1907 before the designs were fully realized, but his assistant, Henry Hering, and Mint engraver Charles Barber worked to bring his vision to life. St. Gaudens Double Eagle was minted from 1907 to 1933. It became a symbol of American pride and artistry, admired for its exquisite design and superior craftsmanship. Due to the Great Depression and the government's decision to abandon the gold standard, production of gold coins ceased in 1933, making the St. Gaudens Double Eagle one of the last gold coins struck for circulation. Today, the coin remains highly prized by collectors and investors for its historical significance, stunning design, and status as a true representation of American numismatic art.

The edge of the coin is adorned with 46 raised stars, representing the 46 states in the Union at the time of minting.
