Coin Description
SCARCE 1857 EAGLE
The 1857 is scarcer than any of the Philadelphia eagles struck between 1847 and 1856. It is not often seen above AU50-AU53 and it is extremely hard to locate with original color and choice surfaces.
This deeply toned example shows rich natural russet and caramel hues which appear unmolested and totally original. There is considerable underlying luster and the surfaces are lightly abraded save for an old reeding mark on the jawline of Liberty.
The last PCGS AU50 1857 eagle to sell at auction brought $1,840 as Heritage 1/11: 7040.
