Mormon gold coins refer to a series of gold coins minted during the mid-19th century in the United States, particularly by members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). The most notable among these is the 1849 Twenty Dollars coin, which was struck by the Deseret Mint in Salt Lake City, Utah. These coins were primarily created to facilitate trade among the early Mormon settlers and represent a unique aspect of American numismatic history. The 1849 Mormon gold coin is highly sought after by collectors due to its historical significance, limited mintage, and the cultural context surrounding its production.
