Description
Produced at the Philadelphia Mint, the 1915 St. Gaudens Double Eagle is part of the St. Gaudens Double Eagles 1907-1933 series. With a mintage of 152,000, this is a scarce issue — the lower-mintage of the two mint variants. The obverse features Liberty striding forward holding a torch and olive branch, with rays of sunlight behind her — widely considered the most beautiful U.S. coin design and the reverse displays a flying eagle with the rising sun behind it. Produced during the Progressive Era, when President Theodore Roosevelt championed a renaissance in American coin design that produced some of the most beautiful coins ever struck. The Philadelphia Mint, America's oldest coin-making facility, has struck coins continuously since 1792. Estimated market value ranges from $4.9K to $5.7K depending on grade and condition. Struck in 90% gold, 10% copper, weighing 33.4 grams, 34 mm in diameter, with a lettered edge. Cataloged as PCGS #9167.
