The U.S. Mint announced that the one-ounce ultra-high relief 24-karat 2009 Double Eagle based on the original Augustus St. Gaudens design will be displayed at the American Numismatic Association's World's Fair of Money, the country's largest coin show. The show will open on July 30 at the Baltimre Convention Center in Baltimore, Maryland.
The coin will be more than 50% thicker than other U.S. 24 karat gold coins, to allow for the ultra-high relief strike that St. Gaudens had originally designed for.
