- 1857 Liberty Head Eagle. AU-53 (PCGS). A handsome honey-gold example with sharply defined focal features and much of the original luster remaining. Ten-dollar gold eagle production at the Philadelphia Mint dipped to 16,606 circulation strikes in 1857, the lowest total from this facility recorded since 1844. This issue has a higher rate of survival than many Liberty Head eagles from the 1840s, however, and the persistent collector should be able to ferret out a suitable VF or EF. Anything finer is scarce, if not rare, which fact confirms the significance of this offering for the advanced gold enthusiast. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS Population: 11; 20 finer, just two of which are Mint State (MS-62 finest). PCGS# 8622. NGC ID: 263T. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
