- Lot Description
- 1856 Liberty Head Double Eagle. AU-50 (NGC). CAC.
A richly original, khaki-gold example with subtle rose highlights evident at direct lighting angles. Satiny in texture and uncommonly smooth for the assigned grade, this boldly defined, premium quality AU is sure to catch the eye of astute double eagle collectors. Scarce and underrated issue!
Provenance: From the Paisley Acres Collection. Earlier ex Duquesne.
PCGS# 8917. NGC ID: 268Y.
