SECRET WAR ON CASH
Buying The Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle The centerpiece of America's 20th century "gold standard" was The Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle, or $20 gold piece, which stands above the rest as the single most magnificent coin of this or any era in U.S. history. In 1904, President Theodore Roosevelt hired personal friend and sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens to design the new $20 and $10 coins. The Saint-Gaudens $20 design was so acclaimed that the Mint chose to use this design for the creation of the modern Gold American Eagle coins. These coins are highly sought after by investors and collectors alike for their historical significance and rarity. With the passing of the Gold Recall Act in 1933, all gold coins were taken out of circulation, making pre-1933 gold coins a true treasure. In addition, like all Pre-1933 US gold coins, $20 Saint-Gaudens gold double eagles allow for the purchase and sale without the 1099-B reporting required by the IRS for their bullion counterpart. Numismatic coins are excluded from FDR's Presidential Executive Order 6102, Section 2B of 1933.
Buying $20 Liberty Double Eagle GoldCoins America's largest circulating gold coin was the Double Eagle or $20 gold piece, born in the exciting years of the great California Gold Rush of 1849. The new mines yielded the greatest mass of gold in recorded history. Vast quantities of the yellow metal helped to speed the developments of the American West and had far-reaching effects on the world's coinage. Designed by James B. Longacre, the obverse (front) of the $20 Liberty gold coin features Miss Liberty wearing a crown inscribed with the word "Liberty". Thirteen stars representing the original thirteen colonies and the date encircle her. These coins are highly sought after by investors and collectors alike for their historical significance and rarity. With the passing of the Gold Recall Act in 1933, all gold coins were taken out of circulation, making pre-1933 gold coins a true treasure. Their status as a collectible allows for the purchase and sale without the 1099-B reporting required by the IRS for their bullion counterpart. Numismatic coins are excluded from FDR's Presidential Executive Order 6102, Section 2B of 1933.
