Lot 1300
1907 $20 St. Gaudens. High relief, Roman numerals, wire rim. PCGS graded MS-64 PQ. Rich golden-orange mint bloom color with strong luster on both sides. The strike is quite full, with mountainous details on even the tiniest devices. The face, hands and toes of Liberty are complete and strong. As we know, each of these coins had to be struck several times to bring up the high relief, with the final few strikes needed just to fill in the highest details on Liberty and the eagle's huge wings. Worth a premium for its very clean surfaces and abundant eye appeal (PCGS # 9135) .
Estimated Value $14,000 - 16,000.
