THE SECOND HIGHEST GRADED 1895-O EAGLE: PCGS/CAC MS63+
The 1895-O is a scarce issue in properly graded MS63 and it is currently unique in MS64 or finer. This specific example had been the single finest-graded at PCGS until an MS64 was recently graded
This is a really remarkable coin when one considers the typical appearance of this issue. It is sharp and lustrous with natural antique orange-gold color which changes to a green-gold hue at the lower obverse. Were it not for a scrape in the upper left obverse, the chance of this piece grading MS64 was pretty good. Even so, it is the single best 1895-O eagle I have offered for sale.
A PCGS/CAC 1895-O eagle graded MS63 and in an old green label holder sold for $8,400 as Heritage 2/2018: 4323, while an uncommonly clean non-CAC PCGS MS63 brought $7,931 as Heritage 12/2013: 3870.
If you crave the very best, then this is the 1895-O eagle for your set!
CAC has approved eight in MS63 (including this single coin in MS63+) with just one (PCGS MS64) finer.
