Charming Premium Gem 1911 Ten Dollar

1911 $10 MS66 NGC. This Philadelphia date was both heavily minted for the series (over half a million pieces struck) and heavily represented in overseas holdings, so that repatriation in the last quarter to third of the 20th century brought the 1911 eagle into type coin territory. Even type coins can become rarities in high enough grades, however, and anything finer than this Premium Gem absolutely qualifies. Strongly struck devices share a slightly satiny texture with the fields, which are yellow-gold at most angles but reveal a rich peach-orange cast when tilted. NGC has graded 11 numerically finer pieces (1/10).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 28GT, PCGS# 8868, GSID# 9751)

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
