Description

The 1894 Liberty Head Double Eagle is a Gold Double Eagle produced at the Philadelphia Mint as part of the Liberty Head Double Eagles 1849-1907 series. With a mintage of 1.4 million, this is a less common issue — the higher-mintage of the two mint variants, representing 57% of production. The obverse features Liberty facing left wearing a coronet inscribed LIBERTY and the reverse displays a heraldic eagle with shield on breast, olive branch and arrows in talons, with a banner reading E PLURIBUS UNUM surrounded by a glory of rays. Post-Panic production at Philadelphia and San Francisco. Double eagles backed international confidence. Struck at the original U.S. Mint facility, in continuous operation since 1792. Estimated market value ranges from $4.9K to $6.3K depending on grade and condition. Struck in 90% gold, 10% copper, weighing 33.4 grams, 34 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #9025.
