Description
1840 Ten Dollar, AU58
Gobrecht's 'Remodeled' Liberty Head
1840 $10 AU58 NGC. Christian Gobrecht's Liberty Head design
of 1838 and 1839 was further refined by Christian Gobrecht in 1840.
The result was an enduring design that appeared on multiple
denominations during the 19th century and beyond -- on Liberty
eagles, it lasted until 1907. Gobrecht described the Liberty motif
as "a female head resembling everybody and nobody." This 1840 eagle
shows little wear but a touch of strike softness on the high points
of Liberty's hair and at a few obverse stars. Light abrasions and
tiny marks pepper both sides to account for the near-Mint grade.
Pleasing greenish-gold color retains areas of soft luster. Census:
25 in 58 (2 in 58+), 5 finer (12/24).(Registry values: N1793)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 262G, PCGS# 8581, Greysheet# 9359)
