Description
1844 Liberty Head Eagle, AU58
Only Two Finer
1844 $10 AU58 NGC. No doubt collectors were disappointed
when not a single 1844 eagle was discovered in the remains of the
S.S. Republic, as this is the rarest issue of the decade.
NGC has graded only 5 examples at the AU58 level, with 2 finer,
while PCGS has yet to certify an example at AU58 or higher (12/13).
This near-Mint specimen displays lovely medium yellow-gold color
and remaining areas of luster. Light wear appears on the high
points of this piece exhibiting a sharp strike.From the collection of Donald E. Bently, sold for the benefit of the Bently Foundation.(Registry values: N2998)
Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 262S, PCGS# 8590, Greysheet# 9364)
