1892-S Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-63+ (PCGS).

1892-S Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-63+ (PCGS).，A fully lustrous, satin to softly frosted example that also sports razor sharp striking detail from the rims to the centers. By the eve of the Panic of 1893, double eagles were mostly used in foreign payments and not often seen in domestic circulation. The 1892-S issue is no exception; the majority of the 930,150 coins produced at San Francisco were shipped to Europe and South America. Fortunately for numismatists, many of the examples that came back to the United States after World War II are in Mint State, though bagmarked from years of being counted and recounted and moved around in large sacks. Unmarred examples are scarce and quite a challenge to obtain. Tantalizingly close to near-Gem quality with excellent eye appeal, this coin is a delight to behold.，，
