MCMVII (1907) High Relief $20 Wire Rim
A well preserved Mint State example with bright yellow-gold surfaces that exhibit the typical finish seen on High Reliefs. The luster is crisp and delightful, and the eye appeal is as exceptional as could be desired in a coin at the Mint State level. The perennially favored Saint-Gaudens design is at its best here, boldly rendered and probably exactly as the artist envisioned it, though he never saw it in its final form as he died of cancer in the summer of 1907 just before the final stages of his work were completed. Take a long look at this one and you will see just how beautiful a MCMVII High Relief $20 can be. (PCGS 9135) Brilliant to Choice Uncirculated
