Lot Description

Tinges of pale pinkish-rose iridescence enliven otherwise golden-orange color for this sharply struck BU example. This is the finest realistically obtainable for the conditionally challenged 1872-S double eagle, which is scarce at the present grade level and rare any finer. Astute gold collectors should give this one a close look.
