The Double Eagle was the highest denomination of gold coinage ever released by the United States for circulation. Introduced in 1850, the $20 Double Eagle was minted as the United States Treasury received a surge of gold from the California Gold Rush. The Liberty Head design was the first of two to be used on this denomination and had the longest production run. Now, 1873 Pre-33 Gold $20 Liberty Double Eagles with an Open 3 are available from Silver.com.

Each 1873 Pre-33 Gold $20 Liberty Double Eagle available here comes in an NGC slab with a grade of XF40. At this grade, the coins usually show light wear on the high points of the design, and some original mint luster may still be visible. These coins were minted by the Philadelphia Mint in 1873.

The 1873 Gold Double Eagles included both Open 3 and Closed 3 date styles. The Open 3 design has a more noticeable gap between the top and bottom parts of the number 3 in the 1873 date. The Philadelphia Mint struck 1,709,800 of these coins in 1873, the highest number among the three mints producing them that year.

On the obverse side of the 1873 Gold $20 Liberty Double Eagle Coins, James B. Longacre’s portrait of Liberty is featured. This left-facing profile shows Liberty wearing a coronet crown with a ring of 13 stars around her. The date mark is found at the bottom of the design.

The reverse of the 1873 Pre-33 Gold Double Eagles showcases the Great Seal of the United States. This design features a front-facing heraldic eagle with the national shield, arrows of war, and an olive branch of peace. Above the eagle, a ring of 13 stars includes the national motto.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
