Description
Minimally Worn 1872-S Eagle Rarity
1872-S $10 AU 55 NGC. Although the 1872-S is typically encountered at the VF and XF grade levels, the present lot offers an important Choice About Uncirculated survivor.

Although somewhat scuffy, the surfaces reveal remnants of a prooflike finish at certain angles. The color is deep and orange-gold in shade and all features are fully defined. Population: 5 in 55, only 3 finer (7/00).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2653, PCGS# 8665, GSID# 9476)
