Description

Rarely Seen 1877 Ten Dollar, AU55
Mintage 797 Pieces

1877 $10 AU55 NGC. Though the Mint altered the double eagle design for this year to read TWENTY DOLLARS instead of TWENTY D. on the reverse, the eagle was left to read TEN D. for the rest of its run. This interesting Choice AU coin shows a surprising degree of reflectivity through scattered abrasions and light, yet distinct wear. The flashy yellow-orange surfaces host generally well-defined devices, though the left end of the reverse scroll bearing IN GOD WE TRUST is weakened, perhaps from excessive die polishing. Largely unavailable in better grades. Census: 7 in 55, 10 finer (6/10).(Registry values: N4719)
