Auction 360 | Lot 30494 » Eagles » Liberty Eagles
1857 $10 MS62 PCGS. This is the Finest Known and only MS62 graded by either service of this date. The surfaces are very attractive and the coin displays lovely mint bloom. Fully struck by the dies with no signs of weakness found. Both the obverse and reverse die have light clash marks, on the obverse they are located in the field adjoining Liberty's lowest curls, and on the reverse they reside just right of the base of the eagle's neck. A classic condition rarity that will be a highlight of an advanced collection. There are no hoards nor shipwrecks known which might contain these Philadelphia coins, and it is unlikely that another mint state specimen will pop up out of the woodwork to best this coin.
Ex: Bowers and Merena (8/02), lot 842.

1857 $10 AU58 NGC. Breen-6925, "Extremely Rare." One of the many 'sleepers' within the No Motto Liberty Eagle series, the 1857 has a mintage of just 16,606 pieces. Regarded by contemporary collectors as mere bullion, the entire issue went into circulation where it remained until the Civil War led to hoarding of all gold coins. Well struck except for a couple of stars, this radiant sunrise-gold example has excellent eye appeal and no obtrusive abrasions. Since the issue is virtually unobtainable in Mint State, attractive sliders such as the present piece combine value and rarity. Breen considered this variety to be an overdate. Population: 22 in 58, 2 finer (9/04).

1857 $10 AU50 PCGS. CAC. Breen-6925. The 1857 Liberty eagle is scarce in AU grades, and CAC-approved coins are notably rare. That attribute alone set this piece apart from many of its peers, complementing satiny honey-gold surfaces and sharp details. However, the chief attraction of this piece is the PCGS Regency holder in which it resides. PCGS offered the Regency holder option from 1992 to 1996, marketed as a large, premium holder option with more customization options for the paper insert. However, the holder's awkward size and shape made it unpopular with collectors, and PCGS estimates that only about 700 coins were ever slabbed in Regency holders, about half of which were Israeli coins from the Danny Kaye Collection. Our consignor states: "We estimate that fewer than 200 U.S. coins survive in Regency holders." This coin's holder has a long, curving crack on the back along the left edge of the viewing pane, although the holder's integrity appears uncompromised. Includes brown cardboard presentation box. Population: 23 in 50, 33 finer. CAC: 4 in 50, 7 finer (1/22).

1857 $10 AU50 PCGS. Overdate, Breen-6925. "Curve of another digit between 57, touching the curve of 5 and the serif of 7. It is uncertain if this is part of another 5, another 7, or a 6. Extremely Rare." While uncertain whether the line between the digits is from any of the suggested sources, there is no question that this is, indeed, the variety stated, and that as a date, the 1857 is underrated. Smooth, evenly worn surfaces display a reddish-golden patina, but reveal no individually significant marks or other distractions. A rare opportunity for the variety collector. Housed in a large, green PCGS Regency holder.

Auction 99 | Lot 942 » Eagles » Liberty Eagles
NGC 1857 AU 50. The consignor believes this coin to be an overdate, but we can find no convincing evidence of an underdigit or a partial digit between the 5 and 7 as described in the Breen Encyclopedia. There is what appears to be a die scratch between the digits, but we cannot convince ourselves this is part of a previously punched numeral. Otherwise, as a date the 1857 is a rare and underrated one that is generally not accorded the attention other, more famous, dates receive. Only a small number of examples are known in AU with this being one of the finer examples extant. Well defined in the centers with some softness of the details on the stars, the surfaces overall are lightly abraded with only one small dig in the cheek of Liberty. Good luster for the grade. Trends $3850 (12/14). (PCGS# 8622)

Auction 314 | Lot 8342 » Eagles » Liberty Eagles
1857 $10 AU55 NGC. Orange-gold and olive-copper colors blend over both sides of this important Liberty Eagle rarity. The central devices are suitably well defined despite light rub across the highpoints. The surfaces are moderately abraded, yet most of the individually distracting blemishes are confined to the reverse field. This P-mint delivery was produced to the extent of only 16,606 pieces. Even so, it is not widely recognized for either its overall or high grade rarity. Far finer than the typically offered VF or XF survivor, this Choice AU example is earmarked for inclusion in an advanced gold collection. The 1857 is equally as rare as the 1851 and the 1854 in terms of total number of coins known, but it is more elusive in high grades. (PCGS# 8622)

A popular variety among No Motto collectors, especially since it receives a separate listing (and a substantial premium over the regular 1857) in Coin World's Coin Values. This sharp example has substantial luster for the AU50 grade, although marks are concealed on Liberty's cheek and jaw. Only 16,606 pieces were struck, including both the regular and "overdate" varieties. Population: 20 in 50, 14 finer (1/07). (PCGS# 8622)
