<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1058582, member: 19065&quot;]The original design of the Augustus Saint-Gauden&#039;s $20 Double Eagle gold coin was supposed to feature a raised design. They were beautiful but too slow to produce them and there were issues with stacking them, so the design was changed to a lower relief and coins, for the most part, have only continued to be designed with ever flatter strikes. In 2009 the US Mint offered a collector version 1 oz. gold UHE AGE design after the original. They re-developed the idea using new technology and released the one year 2009 UHR gold American Gold Eagle. There was a proposal that the following years a UHR platinum coin be minted but the bill expired and the idea hasn&#039;t been revived.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
