4,271,551 struck — against the other key dates in the Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle series.
Bars are scaled to keep the smallest mintages visible; the exact figure is printed on every row. Mintage is coins struck, not coins surviving — melting and circulation wear thin those numbers further.
Large mintage (4.27 million) common date -- trades essentially at or near gold melt value across circulated and low Mint State grades rather than carrying a large numismatic premium.

What to check before you pay, specific to this date and its 4,271,551-coin mintage.
The same date runs from about $4,842 worn to $4,982 at the top of the scale — a 1× spread. Nearly all of that gap is condition, not the date on the coin, so work out where an example sits on the table above before deciding whether its asking price is fair.
A PCGS or NGC holder settles authenticity and grade in one go, which is most of what you're actually paying for at this level. The premium it adds is small next to the cost of being wrong about either.
Every Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle listed here is priced by an individual seller, so the same coin in the same grade can differ by a wide margin on any given day. Sort by price, check Metal Points and order history for a sense of the seller's record, and message them if the photos don't show enough to grade confidently.
