Lot Description

1901/0-S Liberty Head Half Eagle. FS-301. MS-63+ (PCGS). Bold, handsome honey-rose color adorns both sides of this satiny and smartly impressed example. A popular overdate in the Liberty Head gold series, the 1901/0-S half eagle reveals traces of an underlying 0 at the upper right corner of the final digit 1 in the date. Perhaps only 2,000 examples remain across all grades and only 500 in Mint State, few of the latter as nice as the Fairmont specimen in PCGS MS-63+ offered here. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS# 8403. NGC ID: 25YX. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
