Description
1877-S Liberty Head Eagle. AU-58 (PCGS).
Continuing with the awesome quality and undeniable originality that defines the Liberty Head eagle offerings from the Fairmont Collection's JBR Set, this lovely near-Mint example exhibits vivid warm honey-rose color. Sharply struck and lustrous, an otherwise softly frosted texture yields to modest semi-reflectivity in the fields. The 1877-S is a low mintage (17,000 pieces) eagle that circulated extensively in an era when gold coins enjoyed strong commercial demand on the West Cost. Problem free survivors such as this are always in demand irrespective of numeric grade, although with Mint State coins all but unknown Choice AUs such as this are particularly attractive to advanced gold enthusiasts.
PCGS# 8679. NGC ID: 265H.
