| Reverse description | The reverse is dedicated to the celebrated 1933 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle as part of a 'Most Famous Gold Coins' commemorative series. The central field displays two overlapping oval vignettes joined by a flaming torch: the left vignette reproduces the obverse of the 1933 Double Eagle showing the full-length striding figure of Liberty bearing a torch and olive branch, with radiate sunburst behind and the legend LIBERTY; the right vignette reproduces the reverse design with a flying eagle above a rising sun and the inscriptions UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, TWENTY DOLLARS, and IN GOD WE TRUST.
