The Liberty Head Double Eagle, a $20 gold coin, was minted in the United States from 1849 to 1906. The 1861 Philadelphia mint issue is particularly notable due to the historical context of the Civil War and the coin's limited production during that tumultuous year. The obverse features a classic representation of Lady Liberty, while the reverse displays a majestic eagle. Collectors often seek this coin for its significant historical value and gold content. Its rarity and condition play vital roles in determining its market value among numismatists.
