This uncirculated $20 gold coin:

• Contains one full ounce of .9999 fine gold – more precious metal and a higher purity than the original!
• Minted for one year only—extremely limited quantities are available!
• Has a smaller diameter, four additional stars to represent our now 50 states, and the motto “In God We Trust” – all features that were absent from the 1907 coin.

Determined to modernize and beautify U.S. coinage, President Theodore Roosevelt charged his good friend Augustus Saint-Gaudens, the most famous sculptor of his era, with redesigning the $20 gold coin. With its powerfully striding portrait of Lady Liberty, the result is widely considered the most beautiful U.S. gold coin ever, but its incredibly intricate, ultra high relief design exceeded the capabilities of mass production in 1907. The "flattened" design actually minted, though stunning, could have been even more beautiful. In 2009, the U.S. Mint honored the artist’s vision by re-creating the original ultra high relief coin with modern minting technology.
