Mint State 1850 Eagle Rarity, Large Date Variety

1850 $10 Large Date MS 61 PCGS. Although not as difficult to locate as its Small Date counterpart, the 1850 Large Date eagle is still a noteworthy rarity in grades above About Uncirculated. An important coin for the Mint State gold specialist, both sides are greenish-gold in color with moderately reflective fields. Several striations are noted on both sides, but these features are as struck and resulted from the die polishing that imparted this coin's semi-prooflike finish. A trifle soft over the central and peripheral highpoints, the strike still allows full appreciation of all the major features. Population: 4 in 61, with 6 finer (12/00).
