- Eagerly Sought 1866-S No Motto $10 Gold 1866-S Liberty Head Eagle. No Motto. AU-53 (PCGS). Offered is an extraordinary quality example of this challenging San Francisco Mint Liberty Head eagle. Lightly toned in iridescent reddish-rose, both sides exhibit dominant color in warm honey-gold that confirm the coin's originality. Softly frosted luster remains to a great extent, and the striking detail is sharp to full in virtually all areas. Choice for the grade and not all that far from CAC approval. The final No Motto Liberty Head eagle and the only one bearing this date, the 1866-S has a paltry mintage of 8,500 pieces. With the vast majority of coins lost to commercial use, no more than 40 or 55 examples are believed extant in all grades (per PCGS CoinFacts). The present example qualifies as Condition Census and is ideally suited for an advanced collection of Liberty Head eagles or San Francisco Mint gold coinage. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - JBR Set. PCGS Population: 5; 5 finer (AU-58 finest at this service). PCGS# 8644. NGC ID: 264H. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
