Featuring a full length image of Miss Liberty on the obverse, it appears as if she is ready to step out of the coin. In her left hand is the torch of enlightenment and she carries an olive branch, symbolic of peace. Nearly missed in the background is the dome of the capitol building. The reverse of the coin is dominated by an eagle in flight with the inscriptions of United States of America and Twenty Dollars arranged in concentric arcs above the eagle.
The initial trial examples of the coins struck in early 1907 were extremely high relief and while quite stunning, required many hits on the press to achieve the desired strike. After banks began complaining about the inability to stack the new gold coins Charles Barber, Chief Engraver, had dies redesigned with a lower relief and changed the Roman date to Arabic numerals. The low relief version was used until minting ended in 1933.
