Why was Saint-Gaudens coin called a double eagle?
The Saint-Gaudens coin was called a double eagle because it was a twenty-dollar gold coin, featuring the design of a flying eagle on its reverse, produced by the United States Mint. The name derived from its face value and the prominent eagle imagery, which together symbolized the coin's significance and value.
