1901-O Liberty Head Eagle. Winter-1. MS-63 (PCGS). CAC.

Very well preserved for this conditionally challenging issue, both sides of this handsome 1901-O eagle are fully original with warm honey-rose patina. Sharply struck with frosty mint luster throughout. Relatively obtainable by late date New Orleans Mint eagle standards, the 1901-O (72,041 pieces produced) has been well enough represented in repatriations from foreign bank hoards that the collector should be able to locate a low end Uncirculated example in MS-61 or MS-62. At the Choice and Gem grade levels, however, the rarity of this issue comes readily to the fore. A significant offering for both New Orleans Mint specialists and advanced gold enthusiasts.

PCGS# 8748. NGC ID: 267R.

From the Fairmont Collection-Hendricks Set.

Estimate: $ 2000
