Speaking broadly, $20 St. Gaudens struck in the main U.S. mint in Philadelphia from 1909 to 1915 are scarcer overall than those minted in the branch mints of Denver of San Francisco. In 1910, mintages in Philadelphia and Denver were dwarfed by those in San Francisco, with just 482,000 coins struck in Philadelphia and 429,000 struck in Denver, while 2,128,000 struck in San Francisco. Ironically, survival rates tell a very different story, with the survival rate in uncirculated (MS60 and higher) for the 1910 Philadelphia minted coins estimated at just 24,000 total coins, versus 21,650 1910-D, and 15,350 1910-S. Drilling down further, collector’s will note the scarcity of each coin above MS65, with both San Francisco and Philadelphia minted coins surviving in very low rates (375 Philadelphia and 725 SF) compared to Denver minted coins (2750 estimated) in gem condition. All this adds up to a reality that high conditioned Philadelphia minted 1910 dated $20 St. Gaudens in high condition are extremely hard to locate.
Per PCGS population figures, 158 1910 dated coins total have achieved the grade MS63+, and 2295 are known to have survived in better condition.
