Description:
Lustrous and Well-Preserved
1860 Clark, Gruber Ten Dollar, K-3, AU53
1860 $10 Clark, Gruber & Co. Ten Dollar AU53 PCGS. K-3, R.5. The 1860 Clark, Gruber coins deviated from the federal style of the quarter and half eagles not only in having a depiction of Pike's Peak on the obverse rather than a Liberty head, but they also featured the date 1860 on what is ostensibly the reverse, complete with federal-style eagle. Lots of prooflike luster remains on this AU53 example, which offers greenish-gold coloration and a paucity of mentionable abrasions. The strike is boldly impressed, and the eye appeal is over the top. Even though most of the Clark, Gruber coinage circulated as the product of a well-respected firm, this piece has obviously been the subject of longtime and loving preservation. Listed on page 377 of the 2010 Guide Book. Population: 9 in 53, 45 finer (5/10). (#10137)
