Expert Comments

David Akers (1975/88)

The 1895 is one of the eight or ten commonest dates of the entire Liberty Head Double Eagle series. It is comparable to the 1898-S, 1899 and 1901 in overall rarity and only the 1900, 1903, 1904, 1904-S and 1907 can be considered more common. The 1895 is easily obtained in any grade short of gem condition, but true gems are rather scarce.

Grades	Survival Estimate The Survival Estimate represents an average of one or more experts opinions as to how many examples survive of a particular coin in three categories: 1) all grades, 2) 60 or better, and 3) 65 or better. These estimates are based on a variety of sources, including population reports, auction appearances, and personal knowledge. Survival estimates include coins that are raw, certified by PCGS, and certified by other grading services.
