What does the “double” stand for in Double Eagle Liberty Head $20 Gold Coin? Well around the late 1800s there were many different types of coins in circulation. And unlike commonly thought the term eagle used for coins. It was actually named that by Congress. They received the power to do this by an Act establishing a Mint, and regulating Coins of the United States", section 9, April 2, 1792. The prefix of eagle determines its worth, such as “eagle”, “half eagle”, and “quarter eagle”. Double Eagle just means that the coin is worth 20.00.
With the production of this coin, it took the $10 coins place as the largest coin denomination.
Sadly in 1933 President Theodore Roosevelt stopped the coinage of any gold. Collectors though could keep all their pieces, but no more Double Eagle Liberty Head $20 Gold Coins were ever officially released, making this a very valuable and sought after coin. This coin is worth way more than its weight in gold. Pun intended.
This coin really is beautiful. One side displays the thirteen stars for the original colonies surrounding the liberty head and the reverse side shows the American Eagle. Its deep gold look really brings this coin and is sure to shine in any collection.
So why not make this coin a part of your collection today. Its value is steadily increasing making it a smart buy. This is a great piece for beginners and advanced collectors.
