The coins of the Pre-33 US Eagle Series are some of the most sought-after collectibles in the history of American coinage. With countless thousands of these coins melted down in the 1930s, remaining specimens are prized by collectors. When it comes to the Double Eagle Series, the Liberty Head coin typically sees less demand compared to the highly-coveted Saint-Gaudens Liberty design.

Obverse

The obverse of Pre-33 Liberty Double Eagle Gold Coins features a left-profile relief of Liberty. This portrait shows Liberty wearing a coronet crown on her head with the word LIBERTY engraved on it. The field comes with a ring of 13 stars around her head and a date mark beneath the portrait.

Reverse

On the reverse side of the Pre-33 $20 Liberty Double Eagle Gold Coin is a depiction of the Great Seal of the United States. This ornate design centers on a front-facing bald eagle with the US national shield, the arrows of war, and the olive branch of peace. There is a ring of 13 stars over the head of the eagle. Inscriptions include UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and a face value noted as either TWENTY D. or TWENTY DOLLARS.

History

The Liberty Head Double Eagle went through three overall reverse designs. Within the 1850-1899 dates in this listing, coins issued until 1866 lacked the national motto IN GOD WE TRUST, a feature added from 1866 onward. In 1876, another change was made with the face value changed from TWENTY D. to TWENTY DOLLARS.
