1878 Ten Dollar, MS63
CAC-Endorsed in a Green Label Holder

1878 $10 MS63 PCGS. CAC. Beginning with this year, mintage figures for Philadelphia eagles increased significantly and these issues are far more available in higher grades than their counterparts from 1862 through 1877. The 1878 is somewhat scarce in the MS63 to MS64 range but it is virtually unobtainable finer with just two PCGS MS64+ coins and a single MS65 certified at this service (12/19).

This choice coin is housed in a green label PCGS holder and it is attractive for the assigned grade. Frosty yellow and peach-gold luster adorns sharp devices and shows remarkably few abrasions. For most collectors anything in grades higher than MS63 for this issue would be an overbuy, which makes this nice MS63 a perfect coin for a high-quality Liberty Head eagle set.
