Description

1866-S Motto XF 40 PCGS. An exceptionally rare and valuable eagle. In Akers' auction survey he conducted several years ago, this issue was tied with several others for seventh place in rarity according to average grade, and it ranked in the top 25% of the series in overall rarity. This is an obviously original example that shows rich golden color in the protected areas. Well struck in general, the most obvious surface feature that could be used for tracing the provenance of this piece is a contact mark in the field in front of Liberty's throat. Trends $3,650.
