Lot Description

1877-S Liberty Head Eagle. AU-50 (PCGS). Lovely medium gold surfaces with tinges of pale pink and apricot evident at direct viewing angles. Striking detail remains sharp in the absence of all but light wear, and there is also plenty of luster in evidence to further tempt the bidder. The 1877-S is a low mintage (17,000 pieces) eagle that circulated extensively in an era when gold coins enjoyed strong commercial demand on the West Cost. Problem free survivors such as this are always in demand irrespective of numeric grade. PCGS Population: 19; 16 finer (AU-58 finest at this service). PCGS# 8679. NGC ID: 265H.
