1861 Liberty Head Eagle. MS-62 (ICG).A honey-gold example with razor sharp striking detail in most areas. Somewhat glossy with a curious matte-like texture, this coin appears to have been cleaned after a sea salvage or ground find. Tiny carbon spots remain, mostly on Libertys portrait. Despite its status as one of the most common No Motto Liberty Head eagles in an absolute sense, the 1861 remains rare at all Mint State levels of preservation.
