The Saint Gaudens Double Eagle is a gold coin produced by the United States Mint from 1907 to 1933. Designed by renowned sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, it features a full-length representation of Lady Liberty on the obverse and an eagle in flight on the reverse. The 1931 issue of the Double Eagle is particularly significant due to its rarity, as the majority of these coins were melted down during the Great Depression following the Gold Reserve Act of 1934. Collectors highly value this coin for its artistic design, historical context, and limited mintage.
