High Relief Double Eagle
The high relief double eagle gold coin as originally designed back in 1907 by Augustus St Gaudens has seen its return in the 2009 version of this beautiful coin. In its originalin 1907 the US Mint did not create the coin so it would be stackable. The edge was too thinly stamped which madethe coins unstackable when bankers were storing them in their vaults, thus the coins were discontinued after only a few thousands copies were made.
Most of these original coins were melted down, but a few remain today and are extremely valuable. However, if you don’t want to have to pay possibly tens of thousands for one of the 1907 copies of this coin, you can grab a 2009 Ultra High Relief Coin for slightly over $1,000.
