Description

Bright 1880-CC Ten Dollar, AU58

1880-CC $10 AU58 NGC. A small mintage of 11,190 eagles was achieved at the Carson City Mint in 1880. Most of the mintage was released into circulation, with the result that coins in AU58 are quite scarce today, and Uncirculated examples are rare. The present coin is sharply struck with brightly reflective fields, and only a touch of friction on Liberty's hair, coronet, and thinning of the luster in the fields. The surfaces are lightly unabraded. A die crack runs from the first T in STATES to O in OF. Census: 30 in 58, 13 finer (3/10).(Registry values: N1793)
