The 1924 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle is one of the most sought-after coins in U.S. numismatics, known for its striking design and historical significance.
It was minted during the final years of the original Saint-Gaudens series and remains a key piece for collectors of U.S. gold coins.
The obverse (front) of the 1924 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle features an iconic depiction of Lady Liberty striding forward, holding a torch in one hand and an olive branch in the other.
This powerful design was created by artist Augustus Saint-Gaudens and represents the American ideals of freedom and strength.
The reverse (back) shows a soaring eagle in flight, with a rising sun in the background. This was also designed by Saint-Gaudens.
Denver (D Mintmark): A smaller number of 1924 Double Eagles were struck at the Denver Mint, marked with the “D” mintmark on the reverse side.
The 1924 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle is made from 90% gold and 10% copper. It contains approximately 0.9675 troy ounces of pure gold.
The gold content of the coin made it a significant part of the U.S. monetary system at the time, and it remains a valuable gold bullion coin to this day.
