Lot Description

The 1906 is the final issue in the trio of scarce Philadelphia Mint Liberty Head double eagles from the 20th century that also includes the 1902 and 1905. The circulation strike mintage is a scant 69,596 pieces, the typical survivor falling into the Choice AU to MS-61 grade range. Solidly in the Choice Uncirculated category, and surpassed by relatively few coins at the major certification services, the present example would serve as a highlight in an advanced double eagle set.
