Description

Pleasing 1868-S Eagle, AU53

1868-S $10 AU53 NGC. Most of the San Francisco gold coins from the late 1860s and the 1870s are condition rarities. At the time of issue, these coins entered circulation, unlike their Eastern counterparts. The 1868-S eagle had a mintage of 13,500 coins, yet the average certified grade is only about XF45. This piece is clearly nicer, and it exhibits light green-gold surfaces with considerable luster. Census: 19 in 53, 26 finer (5/10).(Registry values: N2998)
