- Mint State 1894-S Eagle A Highly Regarded Condition Rarity 1894-S Liberty Head Eagle. MS-62 (PCGS). CAC. A highlight of the fabulous Fairmont Collection, this is a Condition Census example of this famous 1894-S eagle. Gorgeous rose-gold surfaces are further enhanced by a full endowment of frosty mint luster. Razor sharp striking detail throughout, the surfaces exceptionally well preserved with solid Mint State quality. The 1894-S is the first in a trio of consecutively dated San Francisco Mint eagles that are scarce to rare in Uncirculated condition. In fact, this is one of the rarest Liberty Head issues from the 1890s irrespective of issuing mint, and not only because the mintage is limited at 25,000 pieces. This issue has remained elusive in overseas finds, and what few examples have been repatriated from foreign bank hoards over the years are largely confined to circulated grades. The certified population tops out at the MS-62 level at both PCGS and NGC, confirming the present example as one of the finest available to today's quality conscious gold enthusiasts. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS Population: 15; 0 finer. PCGS# 8731. NGC ID: 2677. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
