Description

1891-CC $10 MS61 PCGS. The Carson City Mint had a banner year in 1891, and its six-figure output of eagles was its highest mintage for the denomination in that Old West facility's short existence. The flashy fields of this solidly struck example have lovely yellow-gold color with a hint of emerald. A number of light to moderate abrasions on each side account for the grade.(Registry values: N1793)
