Cardsmiths Series 4 – Saint-Gaudens $20 Double Eagle #15 – Amethyst 36/49
This Cardsmiths Series 4 card features the Saint-Gaudens $20 Double Eagle, one of the most iconic and artistically revered coins in American history. Numbered 36/49, this Amethyst variant pays tribute to a timeless symbol of liberty, craftsmanship, and gold’s enduring allure.
Designed by renowned sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, the Double Eagle was minted from 1907 to 1933 and showcases Lady Liberty holding a torch and olive branch with the U.S. Capitol in the background. The reverse depicts a majestic flying eagle — a symbol of freedom in motion. Following the Great Depression, most of these coins were recalled and melted, leaving only a limited number in existence. Surviving specimens are among the most valuable gold coins ever struck by the U.S. Mint.
