Liberty Double Eagles
1850 $20 AU50 NGC. The double eagle denomination was introduced in 1850, to take advantage of the massive influx of gold from the California gold fields. A substantial mintage of 1.1 million pieces was accomplished at the Philadelphia Mint, making the issue relatively available to this day. This attractive AU specimen is lightly worn and moderately abraded with pleasing yellow-gold surfaces that retain traces of original mint luster.
