- 1869 Liberty Eagle. AU-55 (NGC). 1901-S Liberty Eagle. MS-64+ (PCGS). This Reconstruction era ten-dollar gold issue has a paltry original mintage of 1,830 business strikes. Very scarce to rare in all grades, the 1869 compares favorably in this regard to the 1858, 1859-O, 1863-S and 1866-S Motto eagles. A bright yellow-gold example, the present piece retains ample evidence of a semi prooflike finish. Well struck with generally sharp detail, light friction and overall scuffiness to the surfaces confirms a short stint in commercial channels. Exceedingly rare in Mint State, as typical of many Liberty tens from the late 1860s/early 1870s.
