Description
1871 Liberty Eagle, AU55
Only 1,790 Coins Struck
CAC Endorsed
1871 $10 AU55 NGC. CAC. It comes as no surprise that the
1871 Liberty eagle is a challenging issue. A circulation-strike
mintage of just 1,790 pieces means this Philadelphia date was rare
the day it left the Mint. The Bowers' Guide Book of Gold Eagle
Coins estimates about 100 to 125 examples survive in all
grades, and only one or two pieces are known in Mint State. This
impressive Choice About Uncirculated example is sharply struck with
lightly abraded orange-gold surfaces. Traces of prooflike
reflectivity cling to the devices -- as one might expect for a gold
coin with such a low mintage. This is one of the few 1871 eagles to
earn CAC endorsement. Census: 17 in 55, 17 finer. CAC: 2 in 55, 1
finer (10/24).(Registry values: N2998)From The Lockhart Collection, Part III.
