We are pleased to offer an exceptional and historically significant coin—the 1864-S $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle, graded AU58 by PCGS. This coin is a remarkable example from a critical period in American history, reflecting the economic and political turmoil of the Civil War era.
Struck in 1864 at the San Francisco Mint, this $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle was minted during one of the most tumultuous times in U.S. history. Gold coins like this were essential to the economy, especially in the West, where the San Francisco Mint played a crucial role in producing hard currency to support the Union war effort. The 1864-S Double Eagle is a significant piece of Civil War history, making it highly desirable among collectors of this period.
The 1864-S issue is one of the scarcer dates in the Liberty Double Eagle series, particularly in high grades. The survival rate of these coins is relatively low, as many were lost or melted down, making well-preserved examples like this one highly collectible. The AU58 grade strikes a perfect balance between affordability and quality, appealing to both advanced collectors and investors.
