This coin is from a fresh group a Gold ’s we recently bought from a local collection that’s been off the market for decades. This better date is really tough to find in MS64 condition.Only 796,000 were minted, many were melted down and never circulated. This is a popular and rare San Francisco Mint .
Created by master sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, the 1916-S Gold Saint Gaudens is the descendant of the Liberty Double Eagle which first entered circulation in 1850. The denomination was created as a means of exhausting an overage in gold supply due to the 1849 California Gold Rush. They were never intended for general use in commerce as the amount easily equated to a month's wage during the time of issue - making them impractical to carry as a coin. Instead, they were struck to monetize the surplus of gold and to be used exclusively in business transactions, largely between banks.
