Lot Description

1901/0-S Liberty Head Half Eagle. FS-301. MS-64 (PCGS). CAC. This is a visually stunning near-Gem with flashy luster and vibrant golden-apricot patina. 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 1,500 examples remain across all grades and only 400 in Mint State, few of the latter as nice as the Fairmont specimen in PCGS/CAC MS-64 offered here. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS# 8403. NGC ID: 25YX. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
