1876 Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-62 (PCGS).

1876 Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-62 (PCGS).，Beautiful medium gold surfaces combines a satiny reverse with a markedly prooflike obverse. Both sides are sharply struck throughout with exceptional visual appeal for a Type II Liberty Head double eagle at the BU level of preservation. The Philadelphia Mint delivered 583,860 circulation strike double eagles in 1876, nearly twice the figure of the preceding year. Face value was $11,677,200. Some of the mintage made its way overseas, as was common in the era, and many of todays lower range Uncirculated examples are from those holdings. Some 900 to 1,400 examples of this date probably exist in Mint State, generally in the MS-60 to MS-62 grade range, as here. This centennial-year date is frequently selected for inclusion in gold type sets.，，
