详细说明

Attractive classic golden-apricot surfaces are sharply struck, fully lustrous and possessed of outstanding eye appeal. Mintage for this issue was 1,143,500 pieces, and most 1895-S double eagles went overseas in business and banking transactions, typical for the era. Many of these coins have been repatriated in the past few decades, explaining our estimate of 7,000 to 12,000+ Uncirculated coins extant. The typical offering in today's market is for a coin that grades no finer than MS-63, making the present piece scarcer and more desirable from a condition standpoint.
