The word LIBERTY appears on the top periphery surrounded by stars. The date is stamped on the right side of the coin, just above the rock. Reverse Description: A crescent sun appears at the bottom as if rising on the horizon with long rays extending to the top of the coin. A flying eagle covers the central portion, atop the rays. The words UNITED STATES oF AMERICA, TWENTY DOLLARS appear on the top periphery. General Notes:
While a true better date, the 1910-D Saint is not necessarily rare -- especially the case when discussing circulated and lower-level uncirculated specimens. Meanwhile, it is a considerably scarce coin in the grades of MS65 and up, with examples grading MS66 or better proving quite rare. Registry set collectors pay hand over fist for top-grading pieces.
