Description

1869 XF 40 NGC. This is one of the premier rarities in the With Motto series and indeed among all Coronet tens with a mintage of only 1,830 pieces. In fact, its lack of availability is such that 1869-S tens with a weak mintmark have been offered as Philadelphia coins and proofs have been offered as the rarer business strikes. As with all 1869 tens, the fields are deeply prooflike, yet this is definitely not a proof as star 11 shows diagnostic repunching on several points (not seen on the proofs). Although not quite completely struck up, it is a well defined and balanced coin and none of the typically numerous small abrasions are overly distracting.

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 264R, PCGS# 8655, Greysheet# 9390)

Weight: 16.72 grams
