United States $20 Liberty MS63 gold coins are an ideal gold investment for those seeking exposure to both the gold price itself, as well as additional upside potential through the possibility of premium expansion.  Given that the $20 Liberties (1851-1907) were minted before the $20 Saint Gaudens gold coins (1907-1932), they are typically scarcer, and therefore more expensive, in higher conditional grades than $20 St. Gaudens. To point, price performance in the $20 Liberty MS63 is most closely mirrored by the MS64 St. Gaudens, though the $20 Liberty MS63 is traditionally valued slightly higher due to a lower population.  According to PCGS (Professional Coin Grading Company), about 130,000 $20 Liberty gold coins exist in MS63.  By comparison, MS64 $20 St. Gaudens have a known population of 245,136 coins.

The following graph displays a twenty year price performance history for the $20 Liberty MS63 gold coins, along with the gold price.
