Description

1857-S Ten Dollar Gold, MS63
Lustrous Condition Rarity
Ex:
S.S. Central America

1857-S $10 MS63 PCGS. Ex: S.S. Central America, SSCA 6979. David Akers had never seen nor heard of an Uncirculated 1857-S eagle when he wrote his reference, still relevant in many ways to this day. His writing preceded the S.S. Central America discoveries, which comprise the entire Mint State population of this notable condition rarity. The coin remains housed in its original gold foil holder.

Both sides ripple with frosty, yellow-gold luster. There are few distractions of any kind -- just a minor reeding mark on Liberty's jawline, which pedigrees the coin. Both sides exhibit razor sharp-strike definition. A Condition Census coin, worthy of inclusion in a high grade collection. Population: 2 in 63, 2 finer (10/20).
