Description
1854-S Ten Dollar, MS62
First San Francisco Issue
Tied for Finest
1854-S $10 MS62 PCGS. The first 260 1854-S eagles were
struck on April 3, the very day the San Francisco Mint opened for
business. Another 123,566 ten dollar gold pieces would be struck
before the year was out. These coins were desperately needed in
circulation, and virtually none were saved. Miraculously, this MS62
survives among a small group of top-graded representatives totaling
not more than five or six coins, if that. Frosty orange and
rose-gold surfaces exhibit needle-sharp strike detail from the
centers to the rims on each side. Scattered shallow abrasions have
no effect whatsoever on the appeal of this first-year California
rarity. Population: 4 in 62 (1 in 62+), 0 finer (7/22).(Registry values: N7079)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 263K, PCGS# 8615, Greysheet# 9447)
