Description
1855-S Ten Dollar, Great-Looking AU58
Second-Year S-Mint Issue
1855-S $10 AU58 NGC. The second-year eagle issue from the
newly opened San Francisco Mint was a meager 9,000 pieces, a tiny
fraction of the debut tens' production, nearly 124,000 coins. As
expected, most of these early S-mint gold pieces are found in
well-circulated grades, usually VF to low XF. This near-Mint State
example is a great-looking exception, clearly a coin that was
snatched from circulation before it could acquire more than light
field chatter on the well-struck yellow-gold surfaces. A small tick
appearing at the corner of Liberty's mouth is the only singular
mark. Census: 3 in 58, 0 finer (1/14).From Christopher Bently's Nob Hill Collection.(Registry values: N4719)
Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 263N, PCGS# 8618, Greysheet# 9449)
Weight: 16.72 grams
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
