Lot Description

Pleasingly smooth surfaces in a survivor of this otherwise readily obtainable issue. Bathed in a blend of billowy satin luster and warm rose-gold color, both sides also offer razor sharp striking detail from the rims to the centers. As one of the two most plentiful Liberty Head eagles in numismatic circles (the other is the 1893), the 1894 is a perennial favorite among Mint State gold type collectors. The beautiful Fairmont Collection specimen offered here is a find for the discerning bidder that will do nicely in any gold cabinet.
