The $20 Liberty Gold coin was minted in the United States from 1849 to 1907, featuring a classic design with a profile of Lady Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. The 1856 issue, specifically minted in New Orleans, is part of a series that is highly sought after by collectors due to its historical significance and gold content. Coins from the New Orleans mint are often considered more valuable due to their lower mintage and unique mintmark, adding to their appeal in the numismatic market.
