1882 Eagle, MS64
The Finest Quality Generally Obtainable

1882 $10 MS64 PCGS. As with a number of common date Liberty Head eagles from this era, the 1882 can be located through MS64 but it is rare in Gem condition. The only piece graded higher than MS64+ at PCGS is an incredible CAC-approved MS66 (housed in an old green label holder and likely an MS67 or even a bit finer by today's standards), which brought an equally incredible $64,625 as lot 3472 in the 2016 ANA Auction (Stack's Bowers, 8/2016).

This PCGS MS64 would be nearly impossible to locate nicer and it takes a really dedicated collector to spring for the above-mentioned finest known 1882, should it become available again. Luster, in all of its abundance, displays rich peach-gold and yellow hues across surfaces that lack unsightly flaws. Strike sharpness is outstanding.
Ex: FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2010), lot 4046, where it realized $3,220.
