The Most Expensive Coins in the World

Post by : NGDlover

1. 1933 Saint-Gaudens Gold Double Eagle Coin - $7,590,020











1933 Augustus Saint-Gaudens Gold CoinLet's start with a little bit of history here. Back in 1933, 445,000 gold Double Eagle coins were struck. This was the period when President Franklin Roosevelt decided to take the United States off the gold standard. People were asked to turn in their gold so there would be no more gold coins to be used in circulation. It was ordered that all 1933 Double Eagles gold coins are destroyed. However, several coins of this type were not melted. Two 1933 Double Eagle gold coins were given to the Smithsonian Institute for the U.S. National Numismatic Collection. Eight coins were confiscated in 1950s by the Secret Service.
