Best Answer

The coin with the highest value ever sold at auction is the 1933 Saint-Gaudens $20 gold piece. There is only one copy which is legal to own due to a bureaucratic error, while all others are property of the U.S. Mint and illegal to own. The legal sample sold at auction for eight million dollars to an anonymous Californian bidder working through an agent.
