The 1861 Liberty Head Double Eagle, valued at twenty dollars, is a notable gold coin minted in the United States, specifically at the San Francisco Mint. This coin features the iconic Liberty Head design on the obverse and a rendition of an eagle on the reverse. As part of the broader series of Double Eagles issued between 1849 and 1907, the 1861 edition is particularly significant due to its historical context and the limited number of pieces minted. Collectors seek these coins for both their numismatic value and their allure as a symbol of American gold coinage.
