$20 Lady Liberty

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

The popularity of $20 Lady Liberty coins is growing with each passing day, as more and more investors are discovering the benefits of rare coin diversification. There are a great number of investors who have recently converted their portfolios and retirement accounts from stocks and bonds investments into precious metals, and their attention is now focused on diversifying their new precious metals holdings into investments like $20 Lady Liberty coins, for financial protection and potential future profit. Rare coin investment has traditionally been considered ideal for long-term precious metal investment diversification, as rare coins’ numismatic value tends to appreciate over time. The following is a brief overview of $20 Lady Liberty coins.

The inspiration for these beautiful coins originated with the 1849 California gold rush, but coins weren’t minted for circulation until 1850. Lady Liberty coins contain nearly one Troy ounce of pure gold, and were designed by James Longacre. The obverse side of these coins portrays a profiled image of Lady Liberty, facing left, and her head is adorned with a coronet. Thirteen stars encircle her, to represent the original thirteen colonies. The reverse side of the coin features an American bald eagle, hovering with his wings spread, and a coat of arms over his breast. The motto, “IN GOD WE TRUST” was omitted from the original $20 Lady Liberty coins, but later added in 1866. Also, the inscription, “TWENTY DOLLARS” replaced the original, “TWENTY D.” in 1877. Both inscriptions are found on the reverse side of the coin, beneath the eagle. It is recommended for investors to officially certify the numismatic value of their rare gold coins through only the PCGS (Professional Coin Grading Service), or the NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Corporation). These investors are encouraged to complete their research, and then to contact one of our friendly specialists, who offer institutional discounts on bullion and rare coin to household investors like you.

$20 Lady Liberty

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

The long-term benefits of owning Double Eagle coins like $20 Lady Liberty, 22-karat rare gold coins are widely known, and our current economic quandary has investors lining up for their historically proven ability to withstand merciless long-term inflationary cycles. $20 Lady Liberty coins are the original Double Eagle coins, and were minted for circulation from 1850 to 1907, when their classic, “Liberty Coronet” design was replaced by the now legendary, $20 Saint Gaudens, 22-karat rare gold coin. That $20 Double Eagle coin was minted until 1933, when the vast majority of all Double Eagles were confiscated and melted by our government, and used to back up the U.S. dollar.

Today, the surviving $20 Lady Liberty, and Saint Gaudens Double Eagle coins are deemed as rare, and are therefore irretrievable through a second possible bullion confiscation by our government. These coins contain nearly one full troy-ounce of pure gold (.9675 ounces), and their numismatic value is known to appreciate exponentially during long-term periods of dollar devaluation. It is advisable to only purchase rare gold coins whose numismatic value has been officially certified by either the PCGS (Professional Coin Grading Service), or the NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Corporation). Other beautiful rare Liberty coins include $10 Eagles, $5 Half-Eagles, and $2.5 Quarter-Eagles, and investors can receive institutional discounts on all of their rare gold coins by contacting one of our friendly specialists, who offer these discounts to household investors like you.

PCGS Double Eagles

Friday, November 6th, 2009

The long-term financial security, and guaranteed liquidity that PCGS Double Eagles provide make them highly valued among corporate, and household investors alike. Their precious metal content proudly boasts nearly a full troy ounce of pure gold, but it’s their inherent numismatic value that makes them such highly coveted long-term safe haven assets. This inherent value is historically proven to appreciate exponentially throughout extended periods of economic instability, so today’s safety conscious investors are purchasing PCGS Double Eagles, because their numismatic value has been designated by the industry pioneers. The PCGS, or Professional Coin Grading Service was incepted in 1986, and remains as the standard of excellence in rare coin assaying today.

PCGS Double Eagles are $20 Lady Liberty, and $20 Saint Gaudens, 22-karat gold coins that have been individually examined, graded, and sonically sealed by that globally-recognized coin certification company. An official “mint state grade”, which typically ranges between 61 and 66 for investment-grade rare coins, designates their numismatic value. The highest possible mint state grade is a 70, but rare coins of that quality command astronomically high premiums, and are reserved for astute collectors, or museums.

The $20 Lady Liberty was minted from 1850 to 1907, and its’ creation was inspired by the discovery of gold in California in 1849. The Liberty design was replaced by the Saint Gaudens design in 1907, to give our nation’s coinage a more elegant, yet modern “face lift”. Investors can receive institutional discounts on their Double Eagle coins by contacting one of our friendly specialists, who offer these discounts to household investors like you.

$20 Lady Liberty

Friday, October 30th, 2009

The original Double Eagle rare coin is the $20 Lady Liberty, 22-karat gold coin, minted from 1850 to 1907. There actually was one gold coin that was officially struck in 1849 to commemorate the California gold rush, and that $20 Lady Liberty resides in the Smithsonian Museum today. These legendary coins were widely used as actual currency throughout their minting, which explains why so few are in investment-quality condition today. These Double Eagle coins are highly coveted long-term precious metal investments for financial safety, as they are initially distinguished by their substantial precious metal content (.9675 troy ounces of pure gold), but their numismatic worth is considerably more valuable.

Today’s serious long-term investors are certifying the numismatic value of their $20 Lady Liberty Double Eagle coins with an official mint state grade from either the PCGS (Professional Coin Grading Service), or the NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Corporation). Both of these companies are globally respected rare coin assayers, and investment-quality mint state grades from either of these two companies usually ranges between 61 and 66, with 70 being the highest possible grade. Smaller denominated Liberty coins include $10 Eagle coins, $5 Half-Eagle coins, and $2.5 Quarter-Eagle coins. The same denominations also exist in the classic Indian Head design as well, so investors can enjoy greater diversification in their long-term budgets. Modern, $50 American Eagle, 22-karat bullion coins make superb short-term diversifications for rare Double Eagle coins, and investors are encouraged to complete their research, and then to contact one of our friendly specialists, who offer institutional discounts on bullion, and rare coin.
