Owner Comments:

I bought this "No Motto" Liberty eagle uncertified at a local coin auction in December 2002 and submitted it to NGC in March 2023. The coin is rather attractive despite a slightly glossy sheen that NGC interpreted as evidence of "cleaning". I'm not sure whether or not it was "cleaned" but, in any case, it is an attractive coin that cost me less than half of what its gold content is worth now.
