Additional Description: The 1895 Liberty Head Double Eagle is a $20 gold piece struck during a period of economic recovery and shifting monetary policy in the United States. Designed by James B. Longacre, the coin bears the familiar profile of Liberty wearing a coronet, framed by thirteen stars, with a stately heraldic eagle on the reverse—symbols rooted in tradition and national identity.
Produced primarily for bank reserves and international trade, the Double Eagle of this era rarely saw everyday use. The 1895 issue, struck at several mints, circulated alongside growing debates over the gold standard and the role of hard money in an evolving economy.
