Description
1862-S Ten Dollar Liberty, AU55
Underappreciated San Francisco Issue
1862-S $10 AU55 NGC. Coming from a mintage of only 12,500
pieces, the 1862-S ten dollar Liberty is scarce in all grades. NGC
and PCGS combined report 118 grading events -- just two of which
are in Mint State -- but that figure likely includes duplications.
PCGS estimates that only 60 to 80 pieces are extant. The auction
appearance rate of this issue suggests the survivorship is closer
to the high end of the PCGS estimate. The 1862-S eagle was produced
more than three decades before collecting large denomination gold
by mintmark was even a consideration for collectors, explaining the
issue's scarcity overall, but especially in high grade. The present
Choice AU example displays remnants of luster in the protected
portions of the fields, with light wear over design elements that
retain significant detail. Pleasing orange-gold patina is original.
