Exceptional Mint State 1850 Large Date Eagle 1850 Liberty Head Eagle. Large Date. MS-63 (PCGS). This Choice Uncirculated 1850 is an important condition rarity for an early date No Motto Liberty Head eagle. Vivid deep gold surfaces exhibit blended pale rose highlights and more pronounced reddish-russet toning around much of the obverse periphery. Both sides are overall satiny in texture, yet reveal modest semi-prooflike reflectivity in the fields under direct lighting. The strike is suitably bold for an 1850s eagle, and the appearance is remarkably smooth for the assigned grade. The Philadelphia Mint struck 291,451 ten-dollar gold pieces in 1850 utilizing both Small and Large Date logotypes in the die preparation process. The Large Date is the more available variety, although the issue as a whole is conditionally challenging and exceedingly rare in Mint State. Of the three 1850 Large Date eagles in the National Numismatic Collection at the Smithsonian Institution, the highest graded is an AU-58. This is one of the very few Uncirculated pieces that we have ever handled. Solidly in the Condition Census for both the issue and variety, this impressive rarity would serve as a highlight in any cabinet. PCGS Population: 3; 3 finer (MS-64 finest). PCGS# 8603. NGC ID: 2637.
