Description
Low Mintage Choice XF 1869 Liberty Ten
1869 $10 XF45 ANACS. Greenbacks drove out gold coins shortly after the Civil War began. Because of the high national debt, paper money continued to trade at a discount to face relative to gold coin. Since ten dollar pieces were hoarded and failed to circulate, few were struck, a status that went unchanged until 1878. The 1869 had a low mintage of 1,855 pieces, and because of the high face value, few were set aside. The present moderately abraded example has ample glimpses of flashy luster and retains much of its introductory design detail.(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 264R, PCGS# 8655, GSID# 9390)
