When the United States Mint introduced the Double Eagle denomination, the inaugural design took inspiration from the existing Liberty portrait used on the Eagle denomination. This 1875-CC Liberty Double Eagle comes from an era when the gold and silver economy in the American West, in particular, was booming. Carson City coinage from the 1870s is emblematic of the nation’s silver and gold boom centered in Nevada, with each piece tied to the history of that era. Right now, the 1875-CC Pre-33 $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle Coin is available in certified condition from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each 1875-CC Pre-33 $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle Coin is offered in Mint State 63 condition. These coins display strong design elements and retain much of their original surface luster. Typical MS63 coins may exhibit noticeable marks in the main focal areas, along with some scattered hairlines or a minor grouping of them.
The original $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle, introduced in 1850 following the California Gold Rush, was the highest denomination regular-issue coin in U.S. history. This coin type, known as the Liberty Head or Coronet Double Eagle, was minted from 1850 to 1907 and became essential for large commercial transactions and international trade, helping establish the United States as a major player in global gold markets during the latter half of the 19th century.
On the obverse of the 1875-CC $20 Liberty Double Eagle Coin is a left-facing portrait of Lady Liberty. Created by James B. Longacre, the design depicts Liberty wearing a coronet crown, surrounded by a ring of 13 stars, with the year of issue inscribed at the bottom edge of the design.
The reverse of the 1875-CC Pre-33 Liberty Gold Double Eagle features a detailed version of the heraldic eagle designed by Longacre. The image presents a bald eagle with a prominent US shield, grasping arrows of war and an olive branch of peace. A cluster of 13 stars sits above the eagle’s head. As a Type II coin in the series, this piece includes the national motto of IN GOD WE TRUST within the circle of stars above the eagle’s head.
