Description
1854-O Large Date Ten, MS61
Late Die State
1854-O $10 Large Date MS61 NGC. CAC. Variety 1. A heavy die
crack from the border to the bust grazes the left side of the 8 on
this obverse die. The reverse die is perfect with no cracks, clash
marks, or signs of die lapping. The Large Date variety is
traditionally considered rarer than the Small Date, although the
combined NGC and PCGS populations suggest the two varieties are
nearly equal in rarity. However, with a Mint State population of 17
pieces versus two coins for the Small Date, this Large Date variety
is more available in MS60 through MS63 grades. More available does
not imply that it is common, as nothing could be further from the
truth. The 17 certified examples include resubmissions. A lovely
Mint State piece, this example has minimal marks on its satiny
light yellow surfaces. A dozen years ago, Doug Winter enumerated
one MS63 and 10 MS61 examples of this variety at NGC, and that
total remains unchanged since 2006. Census: 10 in 61, 1 finer. CAC:
2 in 61, 0 finer (2/18).From The Barry F. Smith Collection. (Registry values: N4719)
