Description
1871 Ten Dollar, MS60
Single Finest at NGC
1871 $10 MS60 NGC. Unlike most other Liberty gold series,
the Liberty ten has no proof-only issues. But several Philadelphia
issues have tiny commercial mintages. The 1871 production amounted
to 30 proofs and only 1,790 business strikes. PCGS estimates a mere
60 to 75 survivors in all grades, which makes it rarer than the
1871-CC with about 100 survivors. Yet the 1871 trades (on the rare
occasions when one appears) at a fraction of 1871-CC prices, and
provides an important opportunity for knowledgeable specialists.
Almost all examples grade XF to AU, and only two pieces have been
certified as Mint State, the present coin and a PCGS MS60 Admiral
Collection specimen we auctioned in February 2018. The latter coin
had planchet striations that impacted the eye appeal, but this
butter-gold example has attractive surfaces save for a reed
impression in the field below the chin. The devices lack high point
wear, and luster dominates the motifs and margins.(Registry values: N7079)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 264W, PCGS# 8660, GSID# 9392)
