Important Type II $20 Liberty Double Eagle Facts...
- The first gold coins to ever bear the Motto “In God We Trust”.
- Few coins were sent overseas for trade, and few were saved by collectors of
the time, causing the Type 2's to be very rare today.
- Only 3 mints made these coins in San Francisco,
Philadelphia, and Carson City.
- The type II $20 Liberty series is home to the 1870-CC, $64 in the "100 Greatest U.S. Coins" book.
