- Rich lustrous surfaces showcase beautiful golden-wheat and pale rose colors. This near-Gem features exceptional eye appeal for both the issue and the type, and it is an absolute delight to behold in every way.<p>Just 170,395 examples of this issue were struck, a paltry sum in light of the mintages of other Philadelphia Mint double eagles of the era. Though not considered a rarity in the classic sense, the 1898 is anything but common in mid-to-high Mint State grades. Indeed, the present MS-64 example is among the finest certified by PCGS, no mean feat in itself. Perhaps you enjoy the double eagle series as a whole, or perhaps you are simply on the lookout for a suitable example of the denomination for an advanced type collection. Either way, the present beauty is both a condition rarity as well as a scarce issue, and will see spirited bidding activity as a result.
