Rolled Edge, Net Mintage of 50 Pieces

1907 $10 Rolled Edge--Cleaned--ANACS. Unc Details, Net AU50. The Rolled Edge design was the first modification made to Saint-Gaudens' original design for the ten dollar gold piece, after the Wire Rim design proved impractical. Chief Engraver Charles Barber added a border to the original design and 31,500 examples were initially struck. More problems arose before the issue was released into circulation, and a total of 31,450 of the coins were melted. Only 50 specimens were saved through private orders placed at the Mint and through the Assay Commission.
The present coin features bright surfaces, probably the result of a cleaning long ago. The pronounced matte-like surfaces are a pleasing yellow-gold color. The only marks of note are an irregular planchet void at the back of the eagle's tail feathers and an almost imperceptible, shallow scratch from stars 1-4.(Registry values: N7079)
