1901 PCGS MS-63 $20 Liberty Double Eagle Gold Coin - Granite Lady Hoard
From 1850 to 1907, the official $20 circulating coin of the United States was the Liberty Double Eagle. Minted by the US Mint, each coin contains .9675 Troy oz of gold and features a design by James B. Longacre, the Mint’s fourth Chief Engraver.
These particular coins are sealed with a PCGS Special Granite Lady Hoard Label, a tribute to the second San Francisco Mint building, constructed in 1874 during the California Gold Rush.
Known as the “Granite Lady” for its durable, two-story granite structure, the facility was built to support the growing need for gold refining and the weight of large minting machinery.
SD Bullion offers 1901 $20 Liberty Double Eagle Gold Coins certified as MS-63 and sealed in a PCGS Special Granite Lady Hoard Label.
