1904 Double Eagles Liberty Head NGC MS-61

The 1904 Double Eagle Liberty Head is a $20 gold coin featuring the classic design by James B. Longacre. The obverse showcases Lady Liberty wearing a coronet inscribed with the word "LIBERTY," while the reverse displays 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 exhibit light imperfections, such as contact marks, minor surface scratches, or small signs of handling typical for coins in this grade. MS-61 coins retain much of their original luster but have visible flaws that prevent them from achieving a higher grade.

The 1904 Double Eagle is part of the Liberty Head series, which was minted from 1849 to 1907. While it is a relatively common date in the series, it remains a popular and valuable coin due to its gold content and historical significance. The MS-61 grade provides a more affordable option for collectors who want a well-preserved example of this iconic U.S. gold coin without paying the premium for higher-grade specimens.
