"This souvenir depicts the only 1933 Double Eagle officially issued by the United States Mint. Monetized on July 30, 2002, this coin became a world rarity and the only $20 Double Eagle gold piece the U.S. Mint has issued for the year 1933 and the only 1933 Double Eagle that is legal to own.
 
The Double Eagle coin was designed by Augustus Saint-Gaudens in 1907 at the behest of President Theodore Roosevelt. Double Eagles were struck until 1933 when production of the Double Eagle was discontinued, along with all the other U.S. gold coins, as Roosevelt struggled to aid the American economy by prohibiting banks from paying out gold. Before now, no Double Eagle struck in 1933 could be legally owned because none were officially issued as legal tender to the public."
