The 1909 Saint-Gaudens $20 is a scarcer issue among the series, but widely available in circulated and lower uncirculated grades. In grades of about MS64 and up, the 1909 is a true rarity, with true Gems numbering perhaps to only a few dozen pieces total. Most 1909 Saints are sharply struck, and of the high-end pieces that exist the majority offer exceptional luster and eye appeal.
Obverse Description
Liberty is portrayed standing on a rock, holding a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left. The word LIBERTY appears on the top periphery surrounded by stars. The date is stamped on the right side of the coin, just above the rock.
Reverse Description
A crescent sun appears at the bottom as if rising on the horizon with long rays extending to the top of the coin. A flying eagle covers the central portion, atop the rays. The words UNITED STATES oF AMERICA, TWENTY DOLLARS appear on the top periphery.
