Lot Description

1888 Liberty Head Eagle. MS-63 (PCGS). The finest example of this overlooked issue that have offered in recent memory. Softly frosted surfaces are further adorned with rich rose-orange patina. Sharply struck. The 1888 is an underrated Philadelphia Mint eagle from the late 19th century, comparatively few examples from a mintage of 132,921 circulation strikes having survived as part of foreign bank hoards. A fleeting bidding opportunity for the astute gold enthusiast. PCGS Population: 7; 3 finer (MS-64 finest). PCGS# 8712. NGC ID: 266K. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
