# 1901-S Liberty Head Gold Eagle - CAC MS-65

A stunning example of the challenging San Francisco mint Liberty Head gold eagle from the turn of the 20th century, this *1901-S $10 gold piece* represents a remarkable survivor from a limited mintage. Struck during a pivotal era of American numismatic history, this coin showcases the exceptional artistry of the Charles E. Barber-designed Liberty Head series.

The present specimen is graded Gem Uncirculated MS-65 by a leading third-party grading service and has been CAC verified, indicating superior quality and eye appeal within its grade level. With its bright, lustrous surfaces and exceptional preservation, this coin demonstrates remarkable technical quality for a pre-1933 gold issue from the San Francisco mint. The strike is crisp and well-defined, with minimal marks and exceptional eye appeal that will delight even the most discerning collector.

Mintage data reveals only 2,812 examples were produced at the San Francisco Mint in 1901, making this coin inherently scarce. The CAC certification (cert. #882463609) further validates its exceptional preservation and originality. Such high-grade examples of early 20th-century gold coinage are increasingly difficult to acquire, representing an important opportunity for advanced numismatists and gold coin specialists.
