There were 445,500 Double Eagles minted in 1933. After the last batch of double eagle gold coins were struck in 1933, President Roosevelt stopped the circulation of gold coins as legal tender in order to stabilize the economy. As a result, most of the 1933 gold double eagle gold coins were melted down.
However, some of the Double Eagles managed to escape the Melt Down. Two of the 1933 double eagles were given by the Mint to the U.S. National Numismatic Collection at the Smithsonian Institute. However, these two coins are not the only 1933 Double Eagle coins in existence. A number of the coins (20 have been recovered so far) were stolen, and at least nine of these coins found their way into the hands of collectors.
