Description
1857-O Ten Dollar, AU58
Among the Finest Known
1857-O $10 AU58 NGC. Variety 1. A single die pair was used
to strike the entire 5,500-coin mintage of the 1857-O Liberty
eagle. This date is scarce in all grades today, and it is unknown
in Mint State. NGC and PCGS combined report 142 grading events for
this issue, but that figure almost certainly includes duplications.
Most examples seen are in low or middle AU grades, and near-Mint
coins such as the present are notably rare. As the finest examples
known, they are also popular with advanced New Orleans gold
collectors. This piece displays satiny honey-gold surfaces with
areas of reflectivity in the most protected areas. Abrasions are
minimal for the issue. Several lower obverse stars are weak, but
the central devices exhibit pleasing definition. Census: 10 in 58,
0 finer (7/22).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 263U, PCGS# 8623, Greysheet# 9452)
