Description
Conditionally Elusive 1887-S Ten Dollar
1887-S MS 63 NGC. The 1887-S Coronet eagle is scarcer than the 1886-S, 1888-S, and 1889-S in all grades. In addition, this issue becomes rare to nonexistent in grades above MS 62. This is a bright, yellow-gold survivor that boasts sparkling mint luster. A few light, well scattered abrasions are noted on each side and account for the grade. NGC and PCGS combined report only 3 MS 64 examples finer than the present specimen (9/99).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 266J, PCGS# 8711, GSID# 9507)
