1894 Double Eagle, MS65
Conditional Rarity

1894 $20 MS65 PCGS. From a substantial mintage of more than 1.3 million pieces, this Gem 1894 Liberty Head double eagle emerges as a conditional rarity for the type and the date -- but it is also a mighty attractive coin in its own right. Deep, thorough mint bloom radiates from each side, the surfaces a mellow reddish-orange and every bit as unperturbed as the grade suggests. The surprisingly bold strike has produced full star centrils around the obverse periphery, and good articulation of Liberty's hair details. On the reverse, all of the fine detailing in the glory of rays, the eagle's feathers, and the shield stripes are equally well brought up. A great type coin. Population: 10 in 65 (1 in 65+), 0 finer (7/25).
