1907-S $20 Liberty Gold MS64 NGC
$20 Liberty Gold
The $20 Liberty Double Eagle was minted from 1849-1907.
The 1849 version had only one pattern piece made which resides in The Smithsonian collection thus it is not considered necessary for collectors striving to collect all coins. Our first double eagle was designed by James B. Longacre and had a weight of 33.436 grams composed of 90% pure gold (.9675 ounces) and 10% copper with a reeded edge.
Three types of Liberty Double Eagles were made by U.S. Mints.
The Type 1 was minted from 1849-1866 in New Orleans, Philadelphia and San Francisco. It is distinguished as a Type 1 Double Eagle by the fact that it does not have the national motto “In God We Trust” on the reverse. Hoards of Type 1 $20 Double Eagles have surfaced due to recovered shipwrecks like the S.S. Jonathan and S.S. Central America.
The Type 2 Double Eagle minting began during 1866. This type is defined by the addition of “In God We Trust” on the reverse.
There are no known shipwrecks containing hoards of Type 2 $20 Double Eagles. As the Transcontinental Railroad was completed in 1869, this made shipping gold coins by sea unnecessary to get them from coast to coast.
The most valuable Type 2 $20 Double Eagle is, rare in all grades, the 1870 Carson City Double Eagle with a grade of AU53 from PCGS It sold for $1.6 million. Type 2’s were minted in Carson City, Nev., San Francisco, Ca. and Philadelphia. The mintmark on coins, not issued in Philadelphia, can be found below the eagle on the reverse.
The Type 3 Double Eagle is distinguished from the Type 2 by the spelling out of “Twenty Dollars” instead of “Twenty D.” on the reverse.
They were made in Carson City, Philadelphia, San Francisco. They were also minted in New Orleans in 1879 for only one year and for just two years – 1906 and 1907 – in Denver, Colo. Unlike Type 1 and Type 2 20’s more Type 3’s were sent overseas after World War I for balance of trade payments, so gold hoards of Type 3 $20’s sometimes surface in Europe and South America and are offered in the United States.
A limited number of mirrored fields proofs were issued between 1859-1907 by the Philadelphia Mint for collectors
