Lot Description

1880-S Liberty Head Eagle. MS-62+ (PCGS). CAC. Significant near-Choice Mint State quality for this otherwise relatively obtainable San Francisco Mint issue. Bathed in a blend of vivid rose-gold color and lovely mint frost, both sides are exceptionally smooth for an issue that is seldom offered any finer than basal MS-62. Sharply struck and sure to sell for a strong premium. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - Rhone Set. CAC Stickered Population: 15; 12. The former total includes coins certified both MS-62 and MS-62+. PCGS# 8690. NGC ID: 265V. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
