- 1858 Liberty Head Double Eagle. AU-53 (PCGS). CAC. Vivid reddish-rose highlights enliven otherwise khaki-gold patina for this undeniably original example. Lustrous AU quality with bold to sharp detail throughout. The mintage for the date was just 211,714 pieces, down more than 227,000 pieces from the previous year's tally at the Philadelphia Mint. Face value for this elusive issue is $4,234,280. Even circulated examples are scarce for an 1850s double eagle, and we estimate that some 900 to 1,200 examples are extant. The present piece is superior for the assigned grade and would do justice to an advanced gold cabinet. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS# 8923. NGC ID: 2697.
