Description

1879-S Liberty Head Eagle. MS-61 (PCGS). CAC.

Original honey-rose surfaces are lustrous and sharply struck throughout. The 1879-S is easily the most readily obtainable San Francisco Mint eagle from the 1870s, although it is a moderately scarce issue when compared to many later dates in the Liberty Head series. The typical survivor is circulated, and Mint State pieces such as this are in the minority among survivors.

PCGS# 8686. NGC ID: 265R.

CAC Population: 14 in all Mint State grades.

From the Fairmont Collection - CBL Set.
