The United States Mint announced on Friday that Secretary of the Treasury Henry Paulson has authorized the issuance of a 2009 version of the 1907 ultra-high relief Augustus Saint-Gaudens $20 Double Eagle coin.
According to the U.S. Mint, the 2009 legal tender Saint-Gaudens' designed coin will be:
- Made of 24-karate gold,
- have an unlimited mintage for one year,
- released in only a one-ounce version,
- produced with a business-strike finish, and
- minted only in 2009
The 1907 Augustus Saint-Gaudens $20 Double Eagle is considered by many to be one of the most beautiful gold coins made in the history of U.S. coinage.
