About the 20 Dollars US

The 20 Dollars US gold coin, known as the Double Eagle, was struck from 1850 to 1933. It exists in two types according to the effigy: the Liberty head, 1850 to 1907, and the Saint-Gaudens type, 1907 to 1933. It is 900 thousandths fine, weighs 33.43 grams and measures 34 mm across.

The first type carries on the obverse a Liberty head wearing a coronet and, on the reverse, a heraldic eagle. The second, designed by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, shows on the obverse Liberty walking towards the viewer, a torch and an olive branch in hand, and on the reverse an eagle in flight.

Please note: if you would like this coin in a particular version (year, effigy, detail and so on), please contact us before ordering so that we can tell you whether we hold it in stock. The price may then be revised according to the coin’s rarity and condition. The photograph is not contractual.
