US Mint Recreates Saint Guaden's Masterpiece - By: Michael Zielinski, 2009-05-30

The most highly anticipated coin in recent memory was recently released to the public. This coin is a recreation of the Ultra High Relief Double Eagle originally designed by Augustus Saint Gaudens. It was originally created for the 1907 Double Eagle, however the technology of that time did not allow the coin to be mass produced. Modern techniques have allowed the US Min to finally produce the coin as intended.
