Description

1892-S Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-63 (PCGS). CAC.

Attractive semi-prooflike fields support frosty, smartly impressed devices. Drenched in warm orange-apricot, a bold to sharp strike enhances this coin's considerable appeal. The 1892-S is the first San Francisco Mint half eagle produced since 1888, the export trade claiming many of the 298,400 coins struck. Repatriations account for most of the Mint State coins in today's market, but they are few in an absolute sense, and very few when viewed in the wider context of the late date Liberty Head half eagle series. Combining absolute and condition scarcity, this PQ PCGS MS-63 is sure to appeal to advanced gold enthusiasts.

PCGS# 8382. NGC ID: 25Y9.

CAC Population: 7; 6.

From the Fairmont Collection - CBL Set.
