The 1926 Saint-Gaudens $20 is among the more common issues in the series, but it is not quite as readily available as the 1924, 1927, and 1928 Phillies. Still, the coin is frequently encountered in the marketplace through MS65, and there are decent supplies available in the MS66 grade range. All examples grading higher are rare.

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.
