Description

PCGS 1904 MS 65. A superb example of the Liberty type double eagle. Being large, heavy, and very soft, many of these coins became abraded as soon as they were ejected from the coining dies into the collecting hopper. If not then, the troublesome abrasions would multiply as the coins were bagged, transported, stored, and ultimately distributed into the banking system. One might consider the scarario that this pristine coin was, somehow, rescued at the mint level and carefully saved for the past 90 years. The luster is full and bright, and there are virtually no contact marks anywhere.
