1914-S $20 Saint-Gaudens Gold NGC MS-64

The 1914-S $20 Saint-Gaudens gold coin represents one of the final issues of this iconic American series before the disruption of World War I. Struck at the San Francisco Mint during a period of economic uncertainty, this coin was minted in the last peacetime year before America's eventual entry into the Great War. The Saint-Gaudens double eagle series, designed by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful coins ever produced by the U.S. Mint.

The obverse features Lady Liberty striding forward with flowing robes, holding a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left, with the Capitol building visible in the background and rays of sunlight emanating behind her figure. The reverse displays a majestic eagle in flight against a background of radiating lines, with "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "TWENTY DOLLARS" clearly inscribed around the rim. The coin exhibits strong strike characteristics with well-defined details throughout both the figure of Liberty and the eagle's feathers.

Graded MS-64 by NGC, this specimen displays attractive golden luster with minimal contact marks typical for the grade. The surfaces show good preservation with sharp relief on both the obverse and reverse devices. The 1914-S issue is well-regarded among collectors of the Saint-Gaudens series, representing solid numismatic value from the San Francisco Mint. The coin pictured is the exact coin you will receive.
