Description

1901 Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-64+ (PCGS). CAC.
A fully lustrous, satin to softly frosted example with razor sharp striking detail throughout. Lovely orange-apricot color throughout. Only 111,430 circulation strike double eagles were coined at the Philadelphia Mint in 1901. Although this is a fairly low mintage by 20th century standards, a large proportion of the original production figure has survived to the present time, as indicated by population reports and other data. In fact, Q. David Bowers, in his 2004 Guide Book of Double Eagles, gives a high end estimate of more than 15,000 Mint State coins extant. This is an upper end coin for the assigned grade that is sure to catch the eye of discerning gold enthusiasts.
PCGS# 9039. NGC ID: 26CS.

Estimate: $3500
