Losbeschreibung

A Second Mint State 1861-S Double Eagle 1861-S Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-60 (PCGS). If the PCGS MS-61 example in the preceding lot proves elusive, this solid BU 1861-S in MS-60 would make an equally impressive addition to an advanced double eagle cabinet. Attractively original surfaces are bathed in warm honey-apricot color. A touch of softness around the obverse periphery is noted for accuracy, although otherwise the detail is bold to sharp, and pleasingly so for the issue. Full, billowy mint luster blankets both sides and rounds out an impressive list of attributes. PCGS# 8935. NGC ID: 269K. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
