Description
1866-S Eagle, AU55
First of the Motto Tens
1866-S $10 Motto AU55 NGC. The year 1866 saw the first use
of the Motto design on many denominations, making this date
especially popular with type collectors. Only 11,500 With Motto
eagles were struck at the San Francisco Mint in 1866, and examples
in Choice AU condition are rare. This well-detailed specimen
displays rich orange-gold surfaces and satiny mint luster. A few
abrasions in the left obverse field accompany scattered small
marks, as expected for this briefly circulated gold coin. Only 60
to 80 1866-S Motto ten dollar gold pieces are thought to survive.
