<Our item number 107878><B>1907 &#36;20 St. Gaudens. High relief, wire rim. Sharpness of AU-50.</B> Light hairlines from old cleaning but still deserving your full attention due to its bold relief, scintillating luster in and around the devices, and historic presence. The high relief of this design stands out in boldly against the &#40;slightly beveled&#41; field. A remarkable coin it is. Neither before nor since in U.S. history has such a coin been made for circulation. The high relief is usually reserved for Mint Medals due to the difficulty in achieving a favorable result on the mint&#39;s regular coining press &#40;MCMVII &#36;20 gold pieces were struck on the same hydraulic press used to imprint medals at the Philadelphia mint.&#41; <B>&#40;PCGS # 9135&#41;</B>. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;6,500-7,000. <BR><BR>Our item number 107878<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/41jpegs/107878.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/41jpegs/107878N2.jpg" > </P></IMAGES>
