- Uncommonly High Grade 1871-S Double Eagle
1871-S Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-62 (PCGS).
Delightful satin to softly frosted surfaces are further enhanced by vivid mint color in orange-apricot. Fully struck in most areas with nicely preserved surfaces that border on a higher grade.
The mintage for this popular San Francisco Mint issue is 928,000 pieces. Some small amount of this date's mintage later found its way into foreign banking transactions. Many of the low range Uncirculated pieces known today owe their existence to the return of those exported coins to America in the mid-20th century. We estimate that 100 to 150 Mint State examples of the date can be accounted for today. Prior to the mid-20th century the 1871-S was seldom seen in the marketplace, and when encountered at all was apt to grade no finer than EF. This is one of the finer examples available to today's quality conscious gold enthusiasts, and is sure to see spirited bidding, as such.
PCGS Population: 37; 10 finer (MS-64 finest).
PCGS# 8962. NGC ID: 26AC.
