Description

Scarce, Underrated 1882-CC Ten Dollar, AU58
One of the Finest Known

1882-CC $10 AU58 NGC. The Carson City Mint produced a mere 6,764 eagles in 1882, concentrating most of its coinage effort on half eagles and double eagles, in addition to the silver dollars that were struck and put into storage. As a result, the 1882-CC eagle is a rarity, especially in top grades. PCGS has never certified a finer example, and NGC has only graded three submissions in MS60 or better grades. Past commentaries have called the date "underrated" or a "sleeper." Today, attractive examples remain extremely difficult to locate. This one has vibrant peripheral luster with satiny light yellow surfaces and few abrasions of any kind, aside from a tiny patch of marks at the lower left obverse. Census: 36 in 58, 3 finer (3/10).(Registry values: N2998)
