AU is way better than type 2AU,looks wise

Meh......stick with AU over type 2 AU(as far as showing off the coin).....big difference in looks and for the 46 dollar difference,i'll take the more expensive AU. I ordered 2 of these coins(1866-1876 random year) and the AU looks uncirculated and shiny like new. The type 2 AU looks dirty, dingy and very worn. I'll pay the extra and will always buy AU from now on.

Excellent condition and good value

APMEX consistently provides coins in better condition than the sample shown on the website. I was delighted with this purchase and will continue to collect coins and bullion from APMEX.

Great

Requested that they don’t send me a 1873 if possible and I got a very nice 1874-s and couldn’t be happier! Thank you apmex

Old Gold

At only a small premium compared with freshly minted Eagles, why not own some old gold from the gold rush era, having survived confiscation and the big melt in the 30's, still in AU condition. Am very pleased with these.

Nice

Came slabbed PCGS AU, nice surprise. Keeps me from the cost/stress of sending it in myself.

$20 LIBERTY GOLD DOUBLE EAGLE 1874

We purchased this beautiful coin, as we all enjoy history so much, especially the Civil War era. My Great grandfather fought in the Civil War and my grandfather was born in 1870, so he would have been very familiar with this 1874 gold coin!

A wonderful piece of American history !

I received an 1873 gold liberty double eagle (no mint mark), it had the expected bag marks, but this coin has lots & lots of the original lustre, I cannot detect ANY trace of wear, appears to be a completely uncirculated coin. I will get it slabbed, am optimistic to get a grade AU high 50's, perhpas higher, will report back.

A real piece of American history !

I received an 1873 gold lib double eagle (no mint mark), it did have the expected bag marks, but I CANNOT detect ANY wear on this coin, seems to be "completely" uncirculated, it has lots and lots of mint lustre, I will get it slabbed, am optimistic for high 50's AU, will report back. This coin is a real keeper, most pleased !
