1870 Liberty Head Double Eagle. AU-58 (PCGS).A delightful blend of olive-honey and rose-gold patina blankets both sides of this lustrous, sharply defined Choice AU. Just 155,150 circulation strikes of this date were produced at the Philadelphia Mint with a modest face value of $3,103,000. In 1982 David W. Akers had seen very few examples in any grade approaching Mint State. Many of these were sent overseas in later years, by which time they were worn. Some 1,500 to 2,250 circulated coins probably exist, with most survivors confined to the VF to EF range. About Uncirculated examples are available but considerable patience is usually required to locate a high end one such as that offered here.From the Fairmont Collection.
