Coin Highlights:
Double Eagles were regularly issued from 1849 to 1933. This Liberty design by James B. Longacre was used from 1849 until 1907. After nearly 60 years, President Theodore Roosevelt wanted to redesign American coinage and thus, the Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle was born. Interestingly, each coin had 3 different design variants during their years of issue.
The obverse side of the 1877-S Pre-33 $20 Liberty Double Eagle Coin showcases James B. Longacre’s Lady Liberty. In a Greco-Roman style, Liberty is seen donning a coronet crown in left-profile relief. Liberty is surrounded by 13 stars as well as the year of issue.
The reverse field of the 1877-S Pre-33 Liberty Gold Double Eagle Coin features James B. Longacre’s heraldic eagle. The eagle is seen holding a double ribbon while a shield is seen on its chest. This is a variation of the Great Seal of the United States.
Each 1877-S Pre-33 $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle Coin will arrive inside a protective plastic slab from the PCGS. These slabs preserve the AU50 grade of these coins. AU50 coins have extremely light friction on the highest relief points and have the potential for medium mint luster.
