1881 Liberty Head Eagle. MS-63+ (PCGS).
With full mint luster, a razor sharp strike and premium Choice Mint State preservation, this beautiful example will please even the most discerning gold enthusiasts. Produced to the extent of 3,877,220 circulation strikes, the 1881 has a higher mintage than any other Liberty Head eagle. Thousands of examples were exported and subsequently repatriated from European bank hoards, accounting for the majority of Mint State coins in today's market. The typical Mint State 1881 eagle is heavily abraded from overseas transport, however, and even coins in basal MS-63 can be challenging to locate. This superior MS-63+ would do justice to an advanced cabinet.
