1848 Liberty Head Eagle. MS-60 (NGC).Bright yellow-gold patina with a subtle reflective nature to the fields. Minor handling marks as expected, and a highly elusive issue in Mint State as most of these entered circulation and remained there until worn out or destroyed through melting. Superior eye appeal for the assigned grade. A significant condition rarity in an early Liberty Head eagle, and of further desirability since 1848 is the year that gold was discovered in California.From the Paisley Acres Collection.
