# 1901 Liberty Head Double Eagle - CAC MS-62. This exceptional Liberty Head Double Eagle from the turn of the 20th century represents a prime example of late Victorian era gold coinage. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint during a pivotal period in American numismatic history, this *$20 gold piece* showcases the iconic design by Christian Gobrecht that was standard for gold double eagles from 1849 to 1907. The specimen presents remarkable preservation for its age, with lustrous surfaces that retain significant original mint bloom. Careful examination reveals crisp design details across the obverse and reverse, with Liberty's portrait showing exceptional clarity and the eagle's feathers displaying intricate texturing. Light, even wear is consistent with the MS-62 grade, indicating minimal circulation and excellent eye appeal. Certified and verified by CAC (Certified Acceptance Corporation), this coin has been carefully evaluated and meets strict standards of quality and originality. The CAC green label confirms the coin's superior quality within its grade range, making it particularly desirable for sophisticated collectors of pre-1933 gold coinage. With a mintage of just over 1.7 million pieces for the year, the 1901 double eagle represents a relatively accessible yet historically significant numismatic treasure.
