详细说明

A lovely apricot-gold example with razor sharp striking detail and bountiful mint frost. The Philadelphia Mint produced just 170,395 circulation strike double eagles in 1898, down nearly 1.2 million coins from the previous year's tally. A portion of this small mintage was used in overseas commerce. We estimate that 1,750 to 2,500 or more examples of this issue are extant in Mint State, most of those repatriated from Europe in recent decades. A stunning and attractive example that would please the most discerning gold enthusiasts.
