Product Description

The Liberty Double Eagle holds a special place in American coin history as one of the most prominent gold coin designs ever issued. First introduced in 1850, this $20 gold coin remained in production until 1933 and featured just two design series throughout its 84-year history. While the Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle is known for its artistic elegance, the Liberty Double Eagle was the first design for this denomination and the longest in use. Today, Pre-1900 $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle Coins are available at BGASC.

Obverse

The obverse of the Liberty Double Eagle features Lady Liberty in left-profile relief. Designed by Longacre, this bust of Liberty includes a coronet crown and is encircled by 13 stars, with a date mark featured below her portrait.

Reverse

On the reverse, the Great Seal of the United States is displayed. The design of this bald eagle holding the national shield underwent three changes during the coins history. The first Type I design lacked the motto “IN GOD WE TRUST” and used “TWENTY D.” for the denomination. In 1866, the Type II design introduced the motto, and the Type III design debuted in 1877, updating the denomination to “TWENTY DOLLARS.”

History

The $20 Double Eagle was first struck in 1850, with the California Gold Rush driving the need for larger gold coinage. These coins were primarily used for high-value bank transactions and international trade. The Liberty Double Eagle design, used from 1850 to 1907, was created by James B. Longacre, the 4th Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint.
