- 1856 Liberty Head Eagle. MS-61 (PCGS). CAC.
Handsome rose-apricot surfaces are softly frosted and exhibit sharp striking detail to the central design elements. Undeniably original and sure to sell for a strong premium. Although the 1856 is one of the more obtainable Liberty Head eagles from the 1850s, it remains scarce in an absolute sense with Mint State coins rare. A bidding opportunity not to be missed.
Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - JBR Set.
PCGS Population: 5; 17 finer (MS-64 finest).
CAC Population: 6 in all Mint State grades.
PCGS# 8619. NGC ID: 263P.
