The $20 Liberty Gold coin, also known as the double eagle, was minted by the United States from 1849 to 1907. The 1866 version is particularly noteworthy as it was the first year of production following the discovery of gold at Sutter's Mill, which led to the California Gold Rush. This coin features an eagle on the reverse and a portrait of Lady Liberty on the obverse, symbolizing freedom and prosperity. Collectors often value these coins for their historical significance, gold content, and design.
