"...Mint State examples are obtainable but they remain scarce. Above MS61, this date becomes very rare and tops out at the MS65 level.", Per Garrett and Guth's "Encyclopedia Of U.S. Gold Coins 1795-1933".
Breen's "Complete Encyclopedia Of U.S. and Colonial Coins" considers the 1874 Gold Eagle as "Rare... Ex. rare above EF."
Q. David Bowers' more recent (2017) Red Book "A Guide Book Of Gold Eagle Coins" echoes the rarity of Mint State 1874 Eagles above MS62, showing "Submissions certified at highest grades (as of March 2017)" by PCGS and NGC at 14 total.
David Akers' Auction Analysis Volume V comments: "The 1874 is scarce in all grades... Generally, the 1874 is available only in the VF to AU grades and strictly uncirculated examples are vary scarce. In choice or gem mint state, the date is rare." His average grade is listed as VF-36.
