The 2009 1 OZ AMERICAN GOLD EAGLE ULTRA HIGH RELIEF CAPSULE ONLY combines one-ounce pure gold content, historic American coin design, and exceptional minting craftsmanship in a distinctive collectible gold coin. Issued by the United States Mint at West Point, this $20 gold coin contains one troy ounce of .9999 fine gold. Its dramatic Ultra High Relief design and protective capsule make it an appealing option for collectors seeking a distinctive piece of modern American gold coinage.

Historic Saint-Gaudens Ultra High Relief Design

The 2009 Ultra High Relief Double Eagle draws inspiration from Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ celebrated 1907 Double Eagle design. The obverse depicts Lady Liberty striding forward with a torch and olive branch against a radiant sunrise, with the United States Capitol visible in the background. The reverse features a young eagle in flight above the rising sun, symbolizing freedom and American heritage.

Using advanced digital sculpting and modern minting technology, the United States Mint recreated Saint-Gaudens’ original artistic vision with exceptional depth and detail. Struck in 24-karat gold, the coin contains 99.99% pure gold, making it distinct from the traditional 22-karat American Gold Eagle bullion series.

This capsule-only gold coin is offered in a protective capsule without necessarily including the original presentation box, companion book, or other packaging supplied with the complete U.S. Mint set. Buyers should confirm the exact contents included with the individual product.
