PHILADELPHIA · 90% GOLD, 10% COPPER · 12,367 STRUCK

The answer

Worth about $5,500⁠–⁠$9,750 circulated and $46,000⁠–⁠$64,000 in MS-65.

The 1907 High Relief Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle is a key date from the Philadelphia Mint, with 12,367 pieces struck. In circulated grades (G-4 to EF-40) our estimate is $5,500⁠–⁠$9,750, and a well-preserved MS-65 example is estimated at $46,000⁠–⁠$64,000. Because this is a key date, condition and authenticity matter far more than metal content: have any high-value coin graded by a recognised service.

Roman numeral date (MCMVII) and a very high relief, struck with several blows of the press. Wikipedia gives 12,367 for circulation strikes. Wire rim and flat rim varieties exist. No mint mark.

Varieties to look for

Wire rim and flat rim

Two rim varieties exist. The wire rim shows a thin raised wire edge; the flat rim does not. Both are in this entry.

Roman date

The date reads MCMVII. Low-relief 1907 coins show an Arabic 1907.

Weight and size

A genuine coin weighs 33.436 g and measures 34.1 mm. Gold coins are widely counterfeited and cast fakes are usually off in weight or diameter. A kitchen scale is a quick first check.
