A tough 1870 liberty head half eagle gold piece graded VF 30 by PCGS. This Philadelphia Mint date is very seldom offered in any grade as a tiny portion still exist today. It carries excellent details for the grade with very attractive original surfaces. We believe this coin could likely grade higher according to today's grading standards. This rare date holds a mintage of only 4,000. However, the PCGS Coin Facts estimates that only 55 of these have survived in all grades today! This coin is one of only a total of five that have been graded VF 30 by PCGS. Just an exceedingly rare date that is seldom ever offered for sale.
