AU Details 1872-CC Ten Dollar

1872-CC $10 --Improperly Cleaned--NCS. AU Details. The tiny mintage of the 1872-CC (4,600 pieces) is even less than that of the famous 1870-CC rarity (5,908 pieces). Unlike the low mintage Philadelphia and San Francisco issues from the 1870s, widespread collector demand exists for the Carson City dates. This example has attractive honey-gold color and pleasing sharpness. The surfaces are a bit bright from a long-ago wipe, and small marks are distributed. Nonetheless desirable, and certain to be the subject of bidding battles.(Registry values: N7079)
