The 1909-S Saint-Gaudens is a common coin in circulated and lower uncirculated grades, though Gems are scarce. They were much scarcer years ago, until the discovery of a South American hoard in 1983. Some specimens exhibit rounded rims, while Gems are well struck and usually offer rather frosty surfaces.
Obverse Description
Liberty is portrayed standing on a rock, holding a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left. The word LIBERTY appears on the top periphery surrounded by stars. The date is stamped on the right side of the coin, just above the rock.
Reverse Description
A crescent sun appears at the bottom as if rising on the horizon with long rays extending to the top of the coin. A flying eagle covers the central portion, atop the rays. The words UNITED STATES oF AMERICA, TWENTY DOLLARS appear on the top periphery.
