Description

# 1892 Liberty Head Double Eagle - PCGS MS61. An exceptional Pre-1933 Gold Coin from the Philadelphia Mint, this 1892 $20 Liberty Head Double Eagle represents a highly collectible example of late 19th-century American numismatic artistry. Struck during the James Barton Longacre design period, this *90% gold* coin showcases remarkable preservation for its era. With a low mintage of only 4,430 pieces, the 1892 issue is notably scarce, particularly in mint state grades. PCGS MS61 graded, this specimen offers collectors a rare opportunity to acquire a significant piece of numismatic history. The coin exhibits the classic Liberty Head design with crisp details and attractive gold-toned surfaces typical of its era. Population data reveals extreme rarity, with only 19 coins graded higher and a total population of just 9 examples. Most 1892 Double Eagles reside in EF to AU condition, making this mint state example particularly desirable. The coin features reeded edge, 34mm diameter, and weighs 33.4 grams of precious metal. Certified by PCGS with #56911607, this specimen represents an important opportunity for serious numismatists and gold coin collectors. Provenance and Market Notes: - Price Guide Value: $32,500. - Extremely limited mint state survivors. - Comparable rarity to 1879, 1880, and 1890 issues. - Minimal high-grade examples in numismatic market.
