Description

1880 Ten Dollar, MS64
Well Struck, Conditionally Rare

1880 $10 MS64 PCGS. CAC. Mintages of eagles and half eagles at Philadelphia soared to record levels between 1880 and 1882. The 1880 eagle was the first issue of the denomination with a mintage of more than 1 million pieces. Examples are readily available in grades through MS62, but Select coins are surprisingly scarce, near-Gems are rare, and Gems are practically unobtainable. This orange-gold and sea-green representative displays vibrant luster and a bold strike. No marks merit individual comment. Population: 32 in 64 (7 in 64+), 1 finer. CAC: 16 in 64, 2 finer (7/21).(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 265S, PCGS# 8687, Greysheet# 9401)

Weight: 16.72 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
