- 1872-S Liberty Head Double Eagle. AU-58 (PCGS). This highly lustrous, golden-honey example is boldly struck from the dies and exhibits just a trace of handling on the highest points. The mintage for the 1872-S amounted to 780,000 pieces, reduced by 148,000 coins from the previous date's total at the San Francisco Mint. Face value for the issue is $15,600,000. As with many issues from the era, some portion of the mintage for the 1872-S found its way into overseas banking and bullion transactions. Uncirculated examples are decidedly scarce, highlighting the importance of the present Premium AU, especially with the attractively original surfaces offered here. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS# 8965. NGC ID: 26AF. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
