1889 $10 MS (PCGS#8715)

October 2018 Baltimore U.S. Coins Auction

详细说明: 1889 Liberty Head Eagle. MS-62 (PCGS). Gorgeous pinkish-gold surfaces are predominantly frosty in finish, yet with decided semi-reflective qualities evident in the fields as the coin dips into a light. Blushes of reddish-orange iridescence here and there around the reverse periphery add further appeal. Fully struck with solid Mint State preservation. A stand-out rarity among late date Liberty Head eagles, the 1889 is the scarcest issue of this type from the 1884 to 1907 era. The reason for this ranking is obvious -- only 4,440 circulation strikes were produced. Most of the few survivors are confined to one of the four AU grade levels, Mint State pieces highly elusive with none certified finer than MS-62 at either PCGS or NGC. A Condition Census example eagerly awaiting inclusion in an advanced gold cabinet. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS Population: just 10; 0 finer. PCGS# 8715. NGC ID: 266N.
