- 1899 Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-63+ (PCGS). CAC. Brightly lustrous surfaces are semi-prooflike in finish with an even endowment of vivid rose-gold patina. Fully struck. The double eagle presses in Philadelphia turned out 1,669,300 circulation strikes in 1899, nearly 1.5 million more than in the previous year. Face value amounted to $33,386,000. Much of the mintage was used in overseas business and banking transactions as, by this time, paper money was preferred domestically to gold coins except in certain areas of the West. However, much of the known Mint State population has returned to the United States in the past several decades. With 25,000 to 45,000 or more Uncirculated examples available to today's collectors the 1899 is obviously a plentiful issue, especially in the MS-60 to MS-63 grade range. This is a premium quality coin at the assigned grade level that is a delight to behold and worthy of the strongest bids. PCGS# 9035. NGC ID: 26CM. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
