Lot Description

1899 Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-66 (PCGS). Razor sharp in strike, this lovely example also offers full mint frost and original golden-orange patina. While the 1899 (1,710,630 circulation strikes produced) is a plentiful late date Liberty Head half eagle in an absolute sense, the type as a whole is scarce in MS-66 and rare any finer. We expect this lovely premium Gem to sell to a discerning gold type or date collector. PCGS# 8398. NGC ID: 25YS. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
