<B>1907 $20 High Relief, Wire Rim MS64 PCGS.</B></I> Though not explicitly labeled as such on the holder, this High Relief example shows a distinct wire rim at the right obverse and reverse. A touch of haze has settled over the butter-yellow fields, lending them hints of apricot and pink. Decisively struck and pleasingly preserved overall, this near-Gem offers the masterful, sculptural quality that has attracted the attention of numismatists and critics alike for over a century.<BR> The Cornish, New Hampshire residence and grounds of Aspet, the estate of Augustus Saint-Gaudens, are now part of the National Historic Site that bears his name. The Site showcases dozens of his works, and emphasis is placed on his role in the redesign of American coinage.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Augustus Saint-Gaudens<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
