Description: Minor repair. The 1882 $20 Gold Certificate, often referred to as the “Gold Coin Note,” is a stunning and rare piece of American currency. This note features a portrait of President James A. Garfield on the front, honoring the late president’s contributions and legacy. The reverse side showcases a powerful image of an eagle with wings spread wide, symbolizing strength and freedom. This eagle design, surrounded by intricate engraving, adds to the note’s visual appeal and historical significance. Unlike other currency, the 1882 $20 Gold Certificate was directly backed by gold coins held in the U.S. Treasury, giving it a unique value during its time of issue. Collectors highly prize this note not only for its scarcity but also for its association with Garfield and its symbolic representation of American resilience and prosperity. This gold-backed certificate is a standout among 19th-century U.S. currency, embodying the elegance and gravitas of the era’s monetary design.
