Choice AU 1868-S Eagle Among the Finest Known 1868-S Liberty Head Eagle. AU-55 (NGC). CAC. Handsome deep golden-honey color with intermingled iridescent rose highlights very much in evidence. Predominantly lustrous with a frosty texture, this expertly preserved Choice AU is sure to appeal to astute gold collectors. Suffering a high rate of attrition through commercial use, this 13,500-piece issue is a true condition rarity among Motto Liberty Head eagles. Even the National Numismatic Collection specimen in the Smithsonian Institution grades only VF-30 (per Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth, 2008). As one of the finest certified and finest known examples, the coin offered here comes highly recommended for an advanced collection of classic U.S. Mint gold coinage. The 1868-S is unknown in Mint State. NGC Census: 15; 7 finer (all AU-58). There are also no Mint State coins listed at PCGS. CAC Population: 5; 1. PCGS# 8654. NGC ID: 264P.
