Classic U.S. Gold Jewelry Collection
$20 Liberty double eagle
A genuine American classic!
$20 Liberty double eagles are among the world’s most recognized and coveted gold pieces. Workhorse coins of trade, they were crucial building blocks of the expanding U.S. financial markets in the 19th Century.
The classic portrait of Miss Liberty on the obverse and the bold heraldic Eagle on the reverse stand today as inspiring symbols of America’s emergence as a mature world power during this wild and exciting period in our nation’s history.
True American classics, these hefty one ounce, historic gold coins have always been one of our favorites. They make impressive and elegant jewelry.
