Description du lot

Attractively original honey-orange surfaces with a sharp strike and plenty of softly frosted mint luster. 842,250 double eagles of the With Motto design type were struck at the San Francisco Mint in 1866, according to government records. Most circulated extensively on the West Coast, and some others were shipped overseas to facilitate trade and were melted at their destinations. At the assigned grade level, this historically significant issue doesn't come any better.
