Description
Elusive 1868-S Ten Dollar, AU58
Unknown in Mint State
1868-S $10 AU58 NGC. The post-Civil War mintage for this
early S-mint eagle was only 13,500 pieces, most of which clearly
circulated--possibly all of which, as neither service has
graded a Mint State example and the Smithsonian's specimen is a
VF30. This elusive orange-gold near-Mint coin shows a somewhat soft
strike on the lower obverse and upper reverse. There is minor
high-point rub and a few small ticks, both consistent with a short
stay in circulation. Census: 10 in 58, 0 finer (8/10).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 264P, PCGS# 8654, GSID# 9469)
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
