The Greysheet Catalog (GSID) of the $20 Liberty Gold – Type 2 (1866–1876) series of Pre-1933 Gold Coinage in the U.S. Coins contains 44 distinct entries with CPG® values between $4,622.56 and $2,160,000.00.

Early in 1849 Chief Engraver James B. Longacre designed the new gold dollar coin

that was authorized by the Act of March 3. He then worked on the double eagle, finishing

in early 1850. The unique 1849 pattern piece resides in the Smithsonian. The

1861 reverse design by Anthony C. Paquet was withdrawn soon after being struck.

Very few pieces are known.

There are three distinct types of the $20 Liberty double eagle design. This second type, issued from 1866-1876, has a motto (IN GOD WE TRUST) to the reverse side.
