Liberty Head Double Eagles are a series of gold coins issued by the United States Mint, featuring a design created by sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens. The 20 Twenty Dollars coins, minted from 1849 to 1908, were intended for large transactions and global trade. The 1854 Liberty Head Double Eagle is notable for its production in a time when the United States was expanding its gold mining efforts, and examples from this year are sought after by collectors due to their historical significance and relative rarity.
