Losbeschreibung

Choice AU 1872-S Eagle 1872-S Liberty Head Eagle. AU-55 (PCGS). CAC. A sharply struck and lustrous Choice AU example with a delightful softly frosted texture to the finish. Vivid rose-orange and deep honey colors provide further eye appeal and confirm this coin's originality. Despite being one of the more common Liberty Head eagles from the 1870s, the 1872-S is scarce in an absolute sense and rare in grades above EF. With so few Mint State coins certified (just two, in fact: PCGS MS-61 and NGC MS-61) this attractively original AU-55 represents the finest in quality for the issue that most collectors can realistically hope to acquire. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - CBL Set. PCGS Population: 11; 10 finer, only one of which is Mint State (MS-61). CAC Population: 7 in all AU grades; 1 in all Mint State grades. PCGS# 8665. NGC ID: 2653. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
