Description

1871-CC Ten Dollar, XF45
Scarce in All Grades

1871-CC $10 XF45 NGC. Winter 1-A. A lightly circulated piece with rich orange-gold patina and hints of luster still in the protected areas. The fields and devices exhibit moderate abrasions and chatter, typical of Carson City gold in this grade. The 1871-CC eagle boasts a small mintage of only 8,085 pieces, and most that survive are well worn. In XF or AU condition, this issue is notably scarce, especially with original patina. Uncirculated pieces are prohibitively rare. PCGS estimates a total survivorship of about 100 pieces in all grades, and the scarcity of examples at auction supports that assessment. Census: 21 in 45, 48 finer (8/25).(Registry values: N2998)
From The Brittany Legacy Collection, Part I.
