1874 Liberty Head $20 Gold AU50

Struck over 130 years ago at the main U.S. Mint in Philadelphia, the 1874 Liberty Head $20 gold pieces bear a distinguished design by James B. Longacre that holds a prominent position in U.S. coinage history. These coins are from an earlier period in America, when precious metal coins played a major role in the daily commerce of the nation. The 1874 $20 gold piece was a very precious piece of pocket change during its year of issue!
