Historic 1858 Eagle, Challenging Issue

1858 $10 Genuine PCGS. The PCGS number ending in .92 suggests Cleaning as the reason, or one of the reasons, that PCGS deemed this coin not gradable. In our opinion, this coin has the details of a VF specimen that has been cleaned. The low mintage was only 2,521 coins for the 1858 eagle, a coin that has "been the subject of much adoration over the years," according to Garrett and Guth, who go on to name numerous other eagle issues that are even more rare. This coin is moderately abraded and shows hairlines from a past cleaning, but much appeal remains over the orange-gold surfaces of this historic issue.
