Lot Description

1904 Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-63 (PCGS). CAC. A bright orange-gold example with razor sharp design elements and outstanding mint luster. Despite a not overly generous mintage of 392,000 circulation strikes, the 1904 is a plentiful issue by Motto Liberty Head half eagle standards. Several thousand Mint State coins have survived but, as with virtually all classic U.S. Mint gold issues, the 1904 is a formidable condition rarity in the finest grades. The offered coin is a solid Choice Uncirculated survivor that would be just right for a collection being assembled with more modest means. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - CBL Set. PCGS# 8409. NGC ID: 25Z4. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
