Pre-33 Gold Coins
Until 1933, when the United States removed the dollar from the gold standard, the U.S. Mint produced a variety of gold coins for use in commerce, ranging from the diminutive Gold Dollars up through the hefty $20 Gold Double Eagle, containing almost a full ounce of gold. While minted in large numbers, untold numbers of these Pre-1933 Gold coins were melted down in the 1930s as the United States government attempted to discontinue the circulation of gold, even going so far as to order the confiscation and mandatory buyback of gold coins held by citizens at the time, reducing the finite supply of these popular gold coins.
The Liberty Gold Double Eagle Coin
Minted through 1907, the Liberty Double Eagle coin contains .9675 oz fine gold, alloyed with copper to improve its durability and wear characteristics. The design, introduced in 1850 by designer James Longacre, is one of the most iconic, easily recognizable images in numismatics. Due to the high value of U.S. $20 Gold coins, many were kept in limited circulation and stored away in vaults, making high-grade coins surprisingly attainable given their age. Due to their limited circulation use, the coins offered here will show nearly full detail of this classic design.

My coin today arrived in great shape, with just some very light surface scratching due to pocket jingling from back in the day when it was money. Good relief, nice full rim, and no feature wear worth mentioning. Zero gouges or dings. I plan to buy this again in the future.

First purchase from APMEX. Was a little nervous about buying a "random AU" online. I've been burned before. But the coin I received from APMEX was exceptional. Higher mintage year, but very, very limited friction and virtually full luster. It really is a beautiful coin. Highly recommend.

Coins arrived today in a timely manner. Quicker than I anticipated. Problem is the 1906 AU58 is obviously more worn down than the 1890 AU50. Maybe there's a reason for this I don't understand. If so I will adjust my review. Will be getting in touch with APMEX and sending photographs.
- Bottom Line
- No, I would not recommend this to a friend

i asked for something pre 1890 and as usual, got what I asked for - an amazing 1877s in at least AU58 condition. It's gorgeous, all the lines are sharp, her hair has all the strand detail. No nicks or scratches, etc. More like an MS60/61...anyways. The problem is...parting with this is going to be tough. So, if you intend to sell later, you might want to steer into modern bullion that is common to the nth degree. These old excellent condition pieces of US history instantly create a place in any ones' collection. They have a history, an energy, and have been cared for a very long time to stay in such great condition for over 140 years. Again, Apmex comes through. Carry better selection than the best LCS out this way. Sorry Paul, but they do.

Very beautiful gold coin in excellent condition. Just as advertised. I wanted one these coins really bad as I had very very few pre-1900 gold coins. I do order quite a bit and I just had that one small request and they fulfilled it. Thank you
