|
1900 NGC MS-63.
|
|
Probably not so-called "PQ" since the obverse displays some abrading in the fields, but really, who cares? The screaming luster and fantastic strike carry the argument for the grade just fine, thank... |

|
1900 and 1907, both PCGS MS-62 (green label).
|
|
1900 shows a couple of trivial copper spots, and a dot or two of darker carbon on the portrait. Both double-eagles display moderate abrasions, but the 1907 seems to be a bit more heavily marked than... |

1900 NGC MS-63.
|
|
Amazingly smooth for only MS-63, the surfaces seem to show basically no major marks, although a small scrape flashes into view beneath the hair bun at some angles. A really nice type double-eagle. |

|
1900 PCGS MS-62.
|
|
No doubt, the zoom-zoom luster elevates expectations, and details are plenty sharp. Some rather modest hairlines delicately sweep across the portrait and may limit the grade, although the reverse is... |

1900 PCGS MS-62.
|
|
A particularly nice, blazing bright reverse appears to be every bit of MS-64, with mostly abrasion-free fields and sensational multi-spoked cartwheel effect. That same marvelous luster spills readily... |

|
1900 PCGS MS-62.
|
|
The grade teeters on the brink between MS-62 and MS-63 given the elegant luster and scattered minor surface marks. A relatively benign, shallow pinscratch off the lower right of Liberty's portrait... |

|
Two 1900 PCGS MS-63.
|
|
Delightful powder-gold patina drapes both coins in equal proportion, and for that matter, these are nearly twins at first glance. The chance to obtain some unmolested gold certainly should be a... |

|
Two 1900 PCGS MS-63.
|
|
Brassy haze shifts across the obverse of one coin, the impetus for an interesting powdery appearance. The other gleams with bright hue and displays a thin streak through the coronet. Two coin lot. |

1900 PCGS MS-62 (rattler).
|
|
Liberty's cheek is affected by a patchy grey area, indicative of some pocket abrasion, and a couple of dark flyspecks are flung across the right side of the portrait. Smooth, even luster emanates... |

|
1900 PCGS MS-62 (rattler).
|
|
A no-question original example with turn-of-the-century die grease still smeared on Liberty's cheek. Details are sharp as can be, and the fields are fresh and clean. |

|
1900 PCGS MS-63 CAC.
|
|
There is not the slightest doubt about vintage surfaces here, since the entire coin bears dusky, powder-gold patina, and there is a fine spray of carbon across much of the obverse. Even a few larger... |

1900, 1904, and 1907 Liberty double-eagles PCGS MS-61 (all rattler).

Orange-gold toning thoroughly drenches the surfaces of this trio of common Liberty double eagles. Now, orange you smart for thinking "orange juice"? For that clean and sunny toning, hey orange you... |

NGC has graded each coronet double eagle in this trio MS-62, and in each case, the grade is suitable. 1900 is the best of the lot, satin-smooth with no more than the expected abrasions for the grade,... |

1900 PCGS MS-62 (green label), and a 1924 Saint-Gaudens NGC MS-62.

1900 NTC MS-64 [cataloger grade, MS-62].
|
|
Grading by some companies, such as the present Numistrust Corporation, is often justifiably frowned down upon, since their grading standards are usually neither consistent nor compatible with the... |

|
1900 MS-60.
|
|
Splendid golden glow radiates from velvety surfaces. Quite possibly a grade of one or two points higher than what has been ascribed grade should be considered! The obverse exhibits a few trivial... |

1900 and 1904 PCGS MS-62.

The 1900 is a well struck example with the frequency of marks expected at the assigned grade level. A cluster of dark toning flecks concentrated around the eagle's left wing is seen on the reverse. ... |

|
1900 MS-60.
|
|
Citrus-gold and likely grading a point or two higher than MS-60. However, this such a common issue that one should hardly split hairs over grade. |

|
1900 MS-62.

1900 NGC MS-62.
|
|
A truly admirable strike nearly carries this coin into the realm of "choice", but alas, the surfaces show just a trifle too much bag friction to allow for the upgrade. A nice, original coin that... |

|
1900 NGC MS-64.
|
|
Superbly struck and glowing from its satiny surfaces. Although evidence of die crumbling is seen on areas of the obverse's rims, Liberty's cheek is fairly smooth. |

1900 PCGS MS-63.

|
1900 PCGS MS-64.

|
1900 NGC MS-64.
|

This is a super nice Double Eagle with minimal marks and not one distraction. Its color is bright and free of copper spots. This is an excellent coin that could be in an MS-65 holder. |

|
1900 NGC MS-64.
