The production of this coin was delayed because of the difficulty the mint had at properly stamping this coin out. The relief had to be lowered in order to make the coin with only one strike.
The $20 US Gold coin was first introduced in 1850. The St. Gaudens $20 gold coin was produced from 1907 till 1933. The quality of this gold coin has lasted the test of time due to largely that paper money was becoming more popular at the time of its introduction.
