Description: Rare Specimen Striking of the MCMVII High Relief Double Eagle MCMVII (1907) Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle. High Relief. Specimen-58 (PCGS). CAC. Exceedingly rare specimen proof with only 8 graded by PCGS. These include a heavy die line through the base of the Capitol dome, swirling die polish lines in the right obverse field that include a pair of lines resembling an upside-down V just below the bottom of the laurel branch, die lines within the raised portions of the rays of the sun on the reverse, and a concentration of heavy die polish lines in the negative space between the eagle's wing and neck, and along the periphery between 9 and 11 o'clock. According to NGC, these dies were used with the distinctive Edge 3 or "Edge B-II" collar that the Mint used to strike the Ultra High Relief double eagles from March to April 1907, and again on December 31, 1907. The diagnostics of this collar, which are not visible on the present example due to the PCGS holder, include a series of diagonal die lines from the left side of the collar segment between the letter S in PLURIBUS and the adjacent star, repunching to the letter B in PLURIBUS, and a notched upper serif on the U in the same word. While NGC has certified a significant number of Proof High Relief twenties from these dies, to date PCGS has certified only seven examples of this issue in their Specimen category, all of which were graded within the last few years. PCGS Population: just 8 in all grades. Shipped USPS Registered and insured.
