1846 Liberty Eagle, AU58
Low-Mintage Philadelphia Issue

1846 $10 AU58 PCGS. The Philadelphia Mint struck a small mintage of 20,095 Liberty eagles in 1846, making the issue elusive in all grades. Most examples seen grade no better than XF45, and Mint State specimens are rare. The supply of AU coins was slightly augmented when six lightly circulated examples were recovered from the wreck of the S.S. Republic. This impressive near-Mint example exhibits just a trace of friction on the well-detailed design elements and the lightly marked yellow and greenish-gold surfaces retain much original mint luster. The overall presentation is most appealing for this mid-19th century gold rarity. Population: 6 in 58 (2 in 58+), 4 finer (5/21).(Registry values: N4719)
