Description du lot

1851 Liberty Head Eagle. AU-55 (PCGS). A generally honey-gold example with glints of pale pink iridescence evident as the surfaces rotate under a light. Satin to softly frosted luster is in abundance on both sides of this boldly struck, minimally circulated example. An underrated issue, as are many pre-Civil War era Liberty Head eagles, the 1851 is remarkably scarce in the finer circulated grades for a Philadelphia Mint issue with a respectable mintage of 176,328 pieces. A find for the astute gold enthusiast. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS# 8606. NGC ID: 263A. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
