Saint Gaudens Gold Double Eagle
During his presidency, Theodore Roosevelt felt that the coinage of the United States was inferior compared to the designs of many foreign nations, especially when compared to the coinage of ancient Greece. A nation as great as the United States should have a currency that would reflect its greatness. Roosevelt arranged for Augusts Saint Gaudens (considered one of the best sculptors of the time) to redesign the coinage of the United States. This Double Eagle is one of only two designs that he was able to complete before his death, and many consider this to be the most beautiful coin ever minted by the U.S. Mint.
Liberty Head Gold Double Eagle
This, the largest denomination of all regular issue U.S. coins, was authorized by an Act of Congress in 1849. The huge amount of gold being produced out West allowed the minting of larger denomination gold coins, and this $20 Gold Double Eagle became one of the most useful of all gold issues. Especially in the earlier years of issue, a single Gold Double Eagle represented a typical monthly wage for an average worker. In 1866 the motto In God We Trust was added to the reverse above the eagle, though both Motto and No Motto varieties were produced in that same year.
