Description

1888-S Ten Dollar, MS65
The Sole Finest Certified

1888-S $10 MS65 NGC. Mint State examples of this San Francisco issue exist mainly in MS63 and lower grades. Choice examples are rarely seen. We have handled an MS64 example on only nine occasions. The present Gem example is the sole finest known of the 1888-S eagle. It has never before been offered at public auction, and here represents the ultimate opportunity for the advanced San Francisco gold collector. Sharp motifs complement vibrant, frosty mint luster in rich orange-gold and peach-yellow hues. A few trivial marks in the fields prevent a finer designation, but the overall eye appeal is fully within the Gem classification. Census: 1 in 65, 0 finer (11/21).(Registry values: N1)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 266M, PCGS# 8714, Greysheet# 9509)
