Lot Description

1871-S Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-60 (PCGS). CAC. A delightfully lustrous example with rose and orange iridescence complementing. Boldly struck for the issue. Prior to the mid-20th century, the 1871-S was seldom seen in the marketplace, and when encountered at all was apt to grade no finer than EF. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS# 8962.
