Description
1875-CC Liberty Eagle, AU53
Low-Mintage Branch Mint Issue
1875-CC $10 AU53 NGC. Winter 2-B. The 1875-CC Liberty eagle
claims a modest mintage of just 7,715 pieces, but the San Francisco
Mint struck no ten dollar coins that year and the Philadelphia
business-strike production was only a token 100 examples. Pressure
from date collectors naturally falls heavily on the meager supply
of Carson City coins. With 100 to 135 examples extant Rusty Goe
confidently asserts that the 1875-CC ranks "among the seven
scarcest issues in the 'CC' $10 gold piece series."This impressive AU53 specimen exhibits some light wear on the well-detailed design elements, but loss of detail is only minor. The pleasing orange-gold surfaces retain traces of original mint luster and show the expected number of minor abrasions for the grade. Census: 11 in 53, 8 finer (11/24).(Registry values: N7079)
Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 265B, PCGS# 8673, Greysheet# 9481)
Weight: 16.72 grams
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
