The book cover states the 117-page edition, with full-colour illustrations of every coin, will provide collectors with useful information about the 31 different $20 denomination gold business strikes and proofs produced at the Carson City, Philadelphia and San Francisco mints between 1866 and 1876. It also provides rarity rankings, striking and lustre characteristics, eye-appeal details and other useful information to build a collection.
The book from Fuljenz, the president of Universal Coin & Bullion in Beaumont, Texas, also includes a consumer protection advisory section about counterfeit U.S. Double Eagles produced in China. The fakes are regularly offered to unsuspecting buyers in the U.S. marketplace.
The book will be available in late September on coinstampsupplies.com.
