- 1905-S Liberty Head Eagle. AU-58 (PCGS). CAC.
Vivid rose-gold and pinkish-red surfaces retain ample evidence of a prooflike finish from the dies. Sharply defined throughout, as well, only a faint trace of rub and wispy handling marks preclude a Mint State rating. One of the scarcest 20th century issues in the Liberty Head eagle series, the 1905-S has a deceptively generous mintage of 369,250 pieces. Apparently very few examples were included in gold shipments to Europe and other overseas destinations, the bulk of the mintage likely retained in government storage until destroyed through melting in 1937. This is a particularly attractive near-Mint survivor that is worthy of serious bidder consideration.
Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection.
PCGS# 8758. NGC ID: 2683.
