Expert Comments

David Akers (1975/88)

The 1894 is one of the more common dates of the series. It is similar in rarity to the 1896 and 1897 and more rare than the 1895, 1899 and the much lower mintage 1901. The 1894 is readily obtainable in high circulated grades as well as Unc-60. Choice uncs are available quite often but in gem condition the 1894 is very scarce, as are nearly all Liberty Head Double Eagles, even the common dates.

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.
