- 1856-S Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-61 (PCGS). CAC. A gorgeous example of this popular San Francisco Mint issue with quality superior to the typically offered Mint State coin salvaged as part of the S.S. Central Americatreasure. Richly original color dominates the complexion, enhanced by full mint luster. The surfaces are impressively smooth for both the issue and the assigned grade. Boldly to sharply struck with outstanding eye appeal and extraordinary numismatic desirability. Though nearly 1.2 million examples of this issue were produced, survivors are surprisingly scarce in Mint State. The recovery of 1,085 examples on the wreck of the S.S. Central Americasomewhat increased availability, though less than 500 pieces are likely to exist across all Uncirculated grades. The present offering is from an entirely different source and ranks among the most attractive examples of this desirable Type I Liberty Head issue available to today's discerning double eagle enthusiasts.
