- 1891 Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-63+ (PCGS). CAC. Beautiful pinkish-gold surfaces are fully struck with bountiful mint frost. Far fewer circulation strike 1891 half eagles were struck in the Philadelphia Mint -- 61,360 pieces -- than in Carson City, the only other coinage facility to produce this denomination that year. The latter facility achieved a mintage of 208,000 pieces, survivors of which are plentiful in lower Mint State grades. The 1891, however, is anything but plentiful in Mint State and has a far lower certified population than the 1891-CC. With no Gems known to PCGS and only a few examples graded MS-64+, this premium quality Choice example from the Fairmont Collection would be difficult to improve upon in an example of this scarce and underrated Philadelphia Mint issue. PCGS Population: 3; 20 finer (MS-64+ finest). PCGS# 8377. NGC ID: 25Y4. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
