- 1902 Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-63+ (PCGS).
Premium Choice Uncirculated quality for this eagerly sought, key date issue. Full mint frost mingles with warm medium gold patina on both sides. Fully struck throughout, and attractive in all regards. With a mere 31,140 pieces produced, the 1902 boasts the lowest mintage of any circulation strike Liberty Head double eagle coined during the 20th century. Q. David Bowers in his 2004 Guide Book of Double Eaglesgives an estimate of 1,000 to 1,500 Mint State survivors or possibly more. A comparatively scarce issue in MS-62 and higher grades, the relatively low mintage adds considerable appeal. Interestingly, most old-time numismatic collections lacked a Mint State coin for the 1902 double eagle.
Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection.
PCGS Population: 3; 11 finer (MS-66 finest).
