<Our item number 113825><B>1907 &#36;20 St. Gaudens. High relief, wire rim. PCGS graded MS-63.</B> A hint of light golden toning. No coin sale would be complete without at least one offering of this beautiful and prized High Relief Saint-Gaudens &#36;20 gold piece struck in 1907. The coin is an example of the so-called Wire Rim variety, in which a &#34;fin&#34; of metal was forced up between the dies and the restraining collar during repeated impressions. Often 3 to 5 blows from the dies were required to strike these fully. The surviving numbers of the High Relief twenties has always been a subject of discussion, but those in better grade were obviously set aside at the time of issue and remain cherished possessions today <B>&#40;PCGS # 9135&#41;</B>. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;18,000-19,000. <BR><BR>Our item number 113825<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/41jpegs/113825.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/41jpegs/113825N2.jpg"> </P></IMAGES >
