This historic coin represents the first regular issue Liberty Head double eagle date. Mintage was almost 1.2 million pieces, but survivors today are not easily found. The offered example is exceptionally nice, sporting soft green-golden patina which is uniform and attractive. It is exceptionally well struck. Surfaces are remarkably attractive, with minimal shallow ticks and scuffs, and only light rubbing. There are a few minor hairlines in the reverse field below the eagle. It truly is as close to Mint State as possible. (PCGS 8902) About Uncirculated to Uncirculated
