Description
The 1924 (S) St. Gaudens Double Eagle is a Gold Double Eagle produced at the San Francisco Mint as part of the St. Gaudens Double Eagles 1907-1933 series. The U.S. Mint produced 2.9 million examples, making this the lowest mintage among 3 mint variants, representing only 28% of total production. 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. The most common date in the series, making it the standard type coin for collectors. Struck at the San Francisco Mint, established during the California Gold Rush and now primarily producing proof and collector coins. Estimated market value ranges from $5.3K to $14K 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 #9179.
