I’d prefer to see no modern $20 one-ounce gold coins whatsoever, if the Pd versions are to have a nominal value of $20.

Don’t get me wrong it would be just fine to produce most any other coin in Palladium, just not the UHR Eagle. St Gaudens would roll over in his grave. It’s almost as demeaning as to product it in Silver.

Please keep this coin which I view as the most important coin to come out of the US Mint since the halt of circulated gold coins period!.

My 2 cents.

It has identical physical working properties as gold, while at least for now, costing less than white gold in the jewelry trade – that should be called ‘faux white gold’.
Palladium isn’t brittle like platinum, nor does it need a rhodium coating against discoloration.
So it makes sense to sell set of a palladium and gold St Gaudens, as a marketing tactic for palladium as the true ‘white gold’.
However, it seems like they placed more emphasis on it being a substitute for silver that will keep its color.
