Condition Rarity MS65 1895 Eagle

1895 $10 MS65 PCGS. While this date is seen with some frequency in grades through MS64, it is extremely rare in Gem and better condition; PCGS records show just two MS65 coins and none numerically finer (1/12). The only previous Heritage appearance of a Gem-or-better example of the issue, for an MS66 NGC coin, dates back to 1996. The rich, slightly satiny luster on this coin is deep yellow-orange with occasional ripening toward the latter color. The strike is uneven on the obverse stars, but the central devices offer bold definition, and the patinated surfaces are refreshingly undisturbed. Population: 2 in 65, 0 finer (1/12).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2678, PCGS# 8732, Greysheet# 9416)

Weight: 16.72 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
