Lot Description

A delightful premium Gem coin, the surfaces are sharply struck, intensely lustrous and possessed of vivid golden-rose patina. Mint records report that 1,874,460 circulation strike double eagles were coined at the Philadelphia Mint in 1900, equal to a face value of $37,489,200. Tens of thousands of Uncirculated examples are thought to exist and are readily available in grades as high as the basal MS-65 level, although anything finer is rare both in an absolute sense and relative to demand from discerning gold collectors. Lovely!
