Description

1880 Liberty Eagle, MS64
Conditionally Rare

1880 $10 MS64 PCGS. CAC. The 1880 was the first ten dollar issue with a mintage of more than a million pieces. As one might expect, the issue is plentiful in grades through MS62, since examples were exported to foreign bank holdings in quantity. But those coins tend to be abraded as they were indifferently shipped and stored. Near-Gems are rare. This apricot-gold example displays sweeping luster. The strike is intricate, and there are no remotely noticeable marks. Population: 32 in 64 (7 in 64+), 1 finer. CAC: 16 in 64, 2 finer (8/22).
