Losbeschreibung

This flashy and vivid piece combines a frosty reverse with a decided semi-prooflike obverse. Both sides are warmly colored in honey-gold, the reverse also with a hint of pinkish-rose evident as the coin rotates under strong lighting. The strike is uncommonly sharp for a Liberty Head double eagle of this design type, and the surfaces reveal few individually distracting marks despite obvious handling to account for the BU assessment from NGC. Visually pleasing for the grade, and eagerly awaiting inclusion in an advanced double eagle set.
