Struck in the smaller 30 mm format creating a thicker look and feel. Saint-GaudensSaint-Gaudens took great interest in the “art of the coin”: his $20 Gold piece, the double eagle coin he designed for the U.S.

Mint, was adapted for minting and was first struck in 1907 in ultra-high relief (only 20 minted). The coin took up to eleven strikes to bring up the detail.

The ultra-high relief did not strike properly and was deemed impractical for commerce. The design was then flattened and a high-relief version was minted.

Even though it took eight strikes less, it was still considered impractical for commerce. The coin was finally modified to a normal-relief version, which was minted from 1907-1933.

It is still considered to be one of the most beautiful American coins ever issued. Intaglio MintIntaglio Mint is renowned for producing high-quality, artistically driven bullion products with a focus on detailed engraving and historical inspiration.
