Description

Near-Gem 1910-S Saint-Gaudens Eagle

1910-S $10 MS64 PCGS. The 1910-S eagle blossoms from a near-type issue in circulated grades to an increasingly prominent rarity through the various levels of Mint State. The near-Gem tier, as seen here, is a wonderful illustration; PCGS has graded just 23 examples in MS64 and only four numerically finer (6/10). Satiny luster is a hallmark of this lot, gracing yellow-gold surfaces that have considerable orange overtones at an angle to the light. The hair over Liberty's ear shows slight softness, but the eagle's raised wing feathers are sharper. A small abrasion on Liberty's cheekbone contributes to the grade.(Registry values: N4719)
