1904 $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle MS-65 NGC
1904 $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle MS-65 NGC
In 1904, the Philadelphia Mint produced a substantial run of twenty-dollar gold pieces, striking over six million of these impressive coins. Known as the Double Eagle, each piece contains 0.9675 troy ounces of gold, combined with a small amount of copper to achieve a 0.900 purity standard that ensured the coin could withstand the wear of circulation. The obverse of this classic coin features a left-facing portrait of Liberty, her hair secured with a coronet, while the reverse displays a heraldic eagle. Struck without a mint mark, this specific issue represents the final years of the long-running Liberty Head design, offering a tangible look at the scale and weight of America's turn-of-the-century gold coinage.
