Description: Presenting an exceptionally desirable coin, personally signed by Edmund C. Moy, former U.S. Mint Director, and John Mercanti, the twelfth Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint, who retired in 2010. With a PCGS Population of only 20 coins in MS70PL, this rare piece is highly sought after. Note that the MS70PL holds a Collectors Universe PCGS published price of $10,000. This 2009 Ultra-High Relief issue is a stunning modern tribute to a classic rarity—the double-thick, small-diameter patterns designed by Augustus Saint-Gaudens in 1907. Of the original patterns, only two exist today, housed in the National Numismatic Collection at the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C. Like those originals, this coin has the same weight as a $20 double eagle but was struck with the diameter of a $10 gold eagle, giving it a distinctive, thicker, and smaller profile. While this 2009 version differs from the original patterns with a slightly flattened rim and a satiny finish instead of a brilliant proof, it retains the deep, medallic appearance that sets it apart from standard coins. This unique and striking design adds to the allure of this exceptional 2009 coin, making it a must-have for serious collectors.
