1857 Ten Dollar, AU50
Housed in a Rare Regency Holder

1857 $10 AU50 PCGS. Overdate. Breen 6925. Thought by Breen to be an overdate, but not acknowledged as such today. As a result of recent discoveries in overseas holdings, this date has become more available in Extremely Fine and About Uncirculated grades. The 1857 remains scarce in properly graded AU58 and it is rare in Uncirculated with just four or five pieces known. The finest 1857 eagle is a sole PCGS MS62, sold by Heritage for $29,900 as lot 30494 in their 2005 FUN Signature. This date remains a good value at current levels and despite being much scarcer than, say, an 1852 it commands just a small premium in the lower AU grades. This is an original coin with pleasing, muted reddish-gold color and occasional glimpses of luster around the devices. Lightly abraded. Housed in an old non-rectangular, oversized PCGS Regency holder.
Ex: FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2011), lot 7040.
