1876 $20
Obverse Description
Dies similar to the regular design as adopted in 1877, but slightly modified, with the letters in LIBERTY farther from the beads than on regular issues of this year; date 1876 lower on the die than on J-1488.
Reverse Description
In the words of John W. Haseltine: in the style of regular issue, but “entirely different from [J-1488]; the TW in TWENTY nearly touch the scroll or label inscribed E PLURIBUS, and there are other slight variations. The whole heraldic eagle design is larger and TWENTY DOLLARS below; in fact, an entirely different die.”
