A scarce and desirable Civil War-era gold coin, the 1860 Liberty Head Double Eagle features James B. Longacre’s classic design of Lady Liberty wearing a coronet. With a face value of $20, these coins were primarily used in large commercial transactions and banking reserves. This example is graded MS40 by CACG, indicating strong remaining detail and lightly circulated surfaces — a rare survivor in this condition for the date.
Ideal for collectors focused on pre-Civil War U.S. gold with CACG-certified quality assurance.
