US Gold Type Set 1834-1933
$20 Saint-Gaudens, No Motto (1907-1908)

Owner Comments:

Quoting from Heritage Auctions for this piece: "Ex: Wells Fargo Nevada Gold. Short Rays Obverse, as are nearly all 1908 No Motto twenty dollar gold pieces from this famous 19,990-coin hoard. Remarkably, there were even more Premium Gems recovered than Gems, and hundreds of coins qualified for the MS67 grade level. This outstanding MS68 ranks among the finest collectible No Motto twenties aside from the famous 10 MS69 coins also recovered from the Wells Fargo group. The peach-gold and lavender surfaces are unsurprisingly pristine, highly lustrous, and sharply struck, except for Liberty's nose."
