Description

This 2006 proof piece, cataloged as X-238, is a Norfed (National Organization for the Repeal of the Federal Reserve and Internal Revenue Code) fantasy silver "New Hampshire Gold Double Eagle" — a private issue that imagines a state-specific gold denomination in the tradition of pre-federal American coinage. Norfed, later known as the Liberty Dollar organization, produced alternative currency pieces advocating for a return to precious metal-backed money. The "$20" denomination and "Gold Double Eagle" reference invoke the classic American gold coin tradition, while the New Hampshire subject and silver composition reflect Norfed's libertarian political philosophy. Norfed pieces became legally controversial, with the organization's founder Bernard von NotHaus eventually convicted of counterfeiting-related charges, making these pieces both numismatic collectibles and artifacts of a political movement.

Rarity Notes

X-238, proof silver. Norfed fantasy piece. Legal controversy around Norfed organization adds historical interest.
