Special “Type-I” $20 Double Eagle and Book Offer:

During the 19th century, a “young” America experienced the sensational California Gold Rush…a Civil War that pitted brother against brother…and the minting of its first $20 gold coin, the Type-I Double Eagle.

It was, in fact, the immense amounts of gold produced by the Gold Rush that inspired and permitted the minting of the large Double Eagle gold pieces. This caused the U.S. government to seek a more compact form to pay large-scale domestic and international transactions that were payable in gold. Thus, the $20 Double Eagle was born.

Once extremely rare and prohibitively expensive, Type-I Double Eagles (minted from 1849 to 1866) today are more affordable than ever, thanks to the lost hoards of Type-I coins discovered and retrieved from the SS Brother Jonathan, SS Central America and SS Republic shipwrecks. Today, despite consistent price gains over the years, quality Type-I Double Eagle specimens are available and still very affordable for the private investor.
