1903 Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-64 (PCGS). CAC.

Colorful golden-rose surfaces are sharply struck with a full endowment of satin to softly frosted luster. The 1903 is one of the lower mintage circulation strike Liberty Head double eagles from the 20th century. Only 287,270 pieces were produced, falling dramatically short of the 6.2 million that would be struck in Philadelphia the following year. Fortunately, tens of thousands of Uncirculated 1903 double eagles are available for today's collectors, though most of these are in grades of MS-63 or lower with plentiful abrasions. This issue becomes surprisingly scarce any finer, and this upper end MS-64 is among the nicest that we have offered in recent sales. A find for the discerning double eagle enthusiast.

PCGS# 9043. NGC ID: 26CW.

From the Mark and Lottie Salton Collection.

Estimate: $ 3000
