1895 Double Eagles Liberty Head NGC MS-61

The 1895 Double Eagle Liberty Head is a $20 gold coin featuring the classic design by James B. Longacre. The obverse displays Lady Liberty wearing a coronet inscribed with "LIBERTY," and the reverse features a heraldic eagle, symbolizing strength and freedom.

Graded NGC MS-61, this coin is in Mint State condition, meaning it has not been heavily circulated but may show light imperfections, such as minor contact marks, surface scratches, or other small signs of wear typical for coins in this grade. MS-61 coins retain much of their original luster but are not perfect and exhibit visible flaws that prevent them from achieving a higher grade.

The 1895 Double Eagle is part of the Liberty Head series, which was minted from 1849 to 1907. While not one of the rarest dates in the series, it is still a desirable coin due to its historical significance and gold content. The MS-61 grade offers a more affordable option for collectors who want a well-preserved example of this important piece of U.S. numismatic history.
