Saint-Gaudens took great interest in the art of the coin: his $20 Gold piece, the double eagle coin he designed for the U.S. Mint, was adapted for minting and was first struck in 1907 in ultra-high relief (only 20 minted). The coin took up to eleven strikes to bring up the detail. The ultra-high relief did not strike properly and was deemed impractical for commerce. The design was then flattened and a high-relief version was minted. Even though it took eight strikes less, it was still considered impractical for commerce. The coin was finally modified to a normal-relief version, which was minted from 1907-1933. It is still considered to be one of the most beautiful American coins ever issued.
