Historical Significance:
The Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle was introduced in 1907 as part of President Theodore Roosevelt's effort to elevate the artistic quality of American coinage. The original design omitted the national motto "IN GOD WE TRUST," making the 1908 No Motto issue an important part of the series' early history.
Later that year, Congress mandated the restoration of the motto, resulting in a design change that distinguishes these early examples from subsequent issues.
An Excellent Addition to Any Collection
With its iconic design, nearly one full ounce of Gold, and PCGS-certified Mint State condition, the 1908 No Motto Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle is an outstanding addition to any classic U.S. gold coin collection. Its combination of precious metal content and historical significance makes it especially appealing to collectors and investors alike.

‘’I would highly recommend making online purchases from Stout Gold & Silver. I was a little hesitant at first because it was going to be my first time purchasing from them so I gave them a call and they took extra time to walk me through the process. Turns out there was not much to it, I placed the order for check payment, mailed off my check and they sent me an update when my order was being shipped out. All the pieces of silver came exactly as described and were undamaged, they did a very good job packaging the pieces. All and all, I am very satisfied and look forward to placing my next order with them. I hope this is helpful comment for anyone interested in doing business with them.’’

‘’Best Gold and Silver dealer bar none! And the safe storage is both affordable and very secure. This business also has the advantage of being owned run by Tom Stout, who i would trust with just about anything. Admittedly I'm friends with Tom as well as a customer but he really is a man of his word, if he says it, that's the way it's going to happen.’’
