When the United States Mint introduced the Double Eagle denomination, the first design used in the series was created with the existing Eagle denomination’s Liberty portrait as its inspiration. This 1856 $20 Double Eagle is a time capsule from antebellum America, reflecting the expanding US Mint output prevalent in the country at the time. Now, the 1856 Pre-33 $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle Coin is available online at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
This 1856 Pre-33 $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle Coin comes in Mint State 63 condition. This particular coin features bold devices, and its original surface lusters. The typical MS63 coin may feature districting marks in the primary focal areas with a few scattered hairlines or a small patch of hairlines.
In the obverse design of the 1856 $20 Liberty Double Eagle Coin, you will find a left-profile bust of Lady Liberty. Designed by James B. Longacre, the image captures Liberty with a coronet crown and a ring of 13 stars overhead. The year of issue is engraved at the bottom of the design field.
For the reverse of 1856 Pre-33 Liberty Gold Double Eagles, Longacre created an ornate version of the heraldic eagle. The design shows a powerful bald eagle with a large US national shield. The eagle is shown clutching the arrows of war and the olive branch of peace. A ring of 13 stars is set above the eagle’s head.
James Barton Longacre designed the original $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle coin that was first minted in 1850. Longacre served as the Chief Engraver of the United States Mint from 1844 until his death in 1869 and was responsible for creating numerous iconic American coin designs.
