Description

1865-S $10 AU55 NGC. This is the Normal Date variety for the year, actually slightly rarer than the blundered date variety with 186 of the date first punched upside down in the die. In his Complete Encyclopedia, Walter Breen recorded a doubled die reverse for this variety. While certain aspects of the reverse are indeed doubled, we believe that this is merely a form of shelf or strike doubling on this piece and not a true doubled die reverse. Both sides of this piece are slightly abraded, as expected for the grade, with light yellow-gold surfaces and considerable remaining luster.
