Description

1915 Ten Dollar, Frosty MS66
Exceptionally Clean, Finely Textured
Terrific Visual Quality

1915 $10 MS66 PCGS Secure. CAC. Few Saint-Gaudens eagles are accessible in high grades, the 1910-D, 1926, and 1932 being obvious exceptions. Most pre-1920 issues are scarce in MS65 and rare in MS66. The 1915 falls somewhere in between the more collectible pre-1920 dates at this level and those that are simply uncollectible in MS66. PCGS reports 13 comparable submissions (three in MS66+), and just two coins finer (7/18).

Ten dollar gold pieces struck at the Philadelphia Mint in 1915 tend to come well-struck. This Premium Gem exhibits pinpoint detail on the middle curls, lower headdress feathers, and the eagle's feathers and talons. Frosted and finely textured apricot-gold surfaces are incredibly clean. Grade limiting marks are confined to the reverse and can be counted on one hand.(Registry values: N4719)
