Description:

On the obverse, we find the adaptation of the famous "Gold Double Eagle" design by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, featuring "Lady Liberty" with flowing hair, a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left.

The reverse features a new design, by Jennie Norris, with the foreground portrait of the eagle, the national symbol of the United States. In addition, the U.S. Mint has added to the edge design of the one-ounce issue a variation on the striated pattern as an anti-counterfeiting measure.
