1899 Double Eagles Liberty Head NGC MS-61

The 1899 Double Eagle, featuring the Liberty Head design, is a U.S. $20 gold coin minted during the late 19th century. The NGC MS-61 grade means the coin is in Mint State condition, indicating it has never been circulated. The MS-61 grade, however, suggests that the coin shows minor imperfections, such as light contact marks, hairlines, or abrasions, that prevent it from achieving a higher grade. Despite these flaws, the coin retains its original luster and sharp details.

The Liberty Head design, created by Christian Gobrecht, was used on U.S. gold coins from 1849 to 1907. The 1899 Double Eagle is a collectible piece from the late 1800s, and while it is not as rare as some earlier issues, it still holds appeal for collectors due to its historical significance and relatively high gold content.

Being certified by NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Corporation), the coin is guaranteed to be authentic, and the MS-61 grade assures collectors of its quality at this level. This makes the 1899 Double Eagle a desirable addition to a collection of U.S. gold coins.
