Lot Description

1890 Liberty Head Eagle. MS-61 (PCGS). CAC. Delightful rose-gold surfaces exhibit pronounced cameo-like contrast between satiny devices and reflective fields. Sharply to fully struck throughout, and possessed of superior eye appeal at the assigned grade level. Despite a relatively limited mintage of 57,980 circulation strikes, the 1890 is obtainable enough in lower Mint State grades due to the discovery of at least several hundred coins in foreign bank hoards. This premium MS-61 is sure to please. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS# 8717. NGC ID: 266R. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
