Obsolete denominations
Half cent Two-cent piece Three-cent piece (silver and nickel varieties) Half dime Twenty-cent piece Gold 1 dollar coin Two-&-1-half dollar coin or even "quarter-eagle" Three-dollar coin Four-dollar coin or "stella" (not circulated) Five-dollar coin or even "half-eagle" Ten-dollar coin or even "eagle" Twenty-dollar coin or even "double eagle" Fifty-dollar coin or even "Half Union" (Comemorative only, California territorial gold, pattern piece)

A "eagle," "half-eagle" & "quarter-eagle" were specifically given these list in the Coinage Act of 1792. Also, a double eagle was specifically created per se by title ("An Act to authorize the Coinage of Gold Dollars and Double Eagles", title & subdivision Ace, March Three, 1849).
