The 1875-S Liberty Double Eagle is a particularly notable issue from the San Francisco Mint during the 1870s. With a mintage of approximately 1,230,000 pieces, it was one of the larger productions of the decade, reflecting the continued processing of gold from western mining operations, particularly Nevada’s rich Comstock Lode. Right now, 1875-S Pre-33 $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle Coins are available from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each 1875-S Pre-33 $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle Coin offered here is in Extremely Fine condition and arrives in a protective plastic flip. Coins with this designation typically fall between 40 and 45 on the Sheldon Numeric Scale and showcase light wear on the high relief points, with the potential for traces of the mint luster.
Most, though not all, 1875-S Double Eagle specimens show evidence of the rough handling typical of the era when these coins served primarily as vehicles for international commerce rather than domestic circulation. These 1875-S Double Eagles exhibit the Type 2 reverse design (used from 1866-1876), featuring the denomination expressed as TWENTY D, with the inclusion of the motto IN GOD WE TRUST, which was not featured on Type I coins.
The obverse of the 1875-S Pre-33 Liberty Double Eagle Coin features a portrait of Lady Liberty. Designed in 1849 by James B. Longacre, the 4th Chief Engraver of the United States Mint. Longacre’s portrait is similar to his predecessor, Christian Grobrecht’s, depiction of Liberty on the other US Eagle denominations of this era. The left-profile bust shows Liberty with a coronet crown on her head.
On the reverse side of 1875-S $20 Gold Double Eagle Coins, you will find the image of the Great Seal of the United States. The seal features a bald eagle in front-facing relief with the US national shield. Its talons clutch the arrows of war and the olive branch of peace.
