Step back into one of the most tumultuous periods in American history with the exceptional 1861-O $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle, graded XF45 by NGC. This coin, minted in New Orleans during the early days of the Civil War, is a remarkable artifact that captures the essence of a divided nation and the enduring legacy of the Liberty Gold Double Eagle series.

Minted in 1861 at the New Orleans Mint, this coin holds a unique place in American history. The New Orleans Mint operated under three different authorities in 1861: the United States, the State of Louisiana, and the Confederate States of America. Coins from this period are highly sought after for their historical significance and scarcity.

The obverse features the iconic Lady Liberty, adorned with a coronet inscribed "LIBERTY," surrounded by thirteen stars representing the original colonies. The reverse displays a majestic heraldic eagle clutching arrows and an olive branch, symbolizing strength and peace, with the denomination and mintmark "O" below.

The 1861-O $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle is a tangible link to the early days of the Civil War and the complex history of the New Orleans Mint. Its production under three different authorities adds to its unique story and collectible appeal.
