One of the coins – an 1874 $20 double eagle – is planned to be auctioned at the Old San Francisco Bay Area Mint on at 8:30 p.m. Tuesday.
Don Kagin, whose company is handling the sale, says almost all of the remaining 1,400 coins will go available for sale on Amazon.com and Kagins.com later in the evening.
