This Double Eagle Indian was first designed by Augustus Saint Gaudens as his preferred vision for the $20 Gold Double Eagle. Due to the opinions of President Theodore Roosevelt and U.S. Mint officials, however the design was set aside for later use.
The 1/2oz .9999 Gold Double Eagle Indian proof is struck in partnership with the Saint Gaudens National Historic Site and National Park Foundation. Each proof comes with an official certificate of authenticity and is presented in a National Park branded display case. Struck by one of the world’s premier high relief mints, Mayer Mint, each proof is certified and graded by NGC in perfect PF70 Ultra Cameo condition and labels have been hand signed by John Mercanti. For this commission, he used original plasters and sketches from the Saint-Gaudens archives to hand-sculpt both the Indian Head and Flying Eagle designs in painstaking high relief detail. Mintage was going to be 1500, but only 230 of these coins have been struck, making them even rarer than the 1oz coin. No more will be produced in 2017, making 230 the max. mintage.
