Rarely Seen AU 1876-S Eagle

1876-S $10 AU50 PCGS. For the first time in the history of the San Francisco Mint, no ten dollar pieces were struck in 1875.

Nonetheless, the 1876-S is rarer than the 1876-CC, according to both PCGS and NGC. It is also trades at a fraction of the value of the 1876-CC. This is a bright lemon-gold example with ample luster and no obtrusive marks. Housed in a green label holder. Population: 8 in 50, 4 finer (6/08).(Registry values: N4719)
