1850 $10 Small Date MS (PCGS#8604)

Winter 2022 U.S. Coins Auction

Description du lot: 1850 Liberty Head Eagle. Small Date. AU-55 (PCGS). CAC. This pretty example displays pale rose highlights on dominant honey-olive color. Well defined overall with plenty of original frosty luster in evidence. The Small Date is by far the scarcer logotype of the 1850 eagle (combined mintage: 291,451 circulation strikes), although this fact is not widely recognized. Very well preserved and attractive in all regards, our offering of this Choice AU is a significant bidding opportunity for the astute gold enthusiast. The date logotype used for this variety was intended for large cents and half eagles. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - CBL Set. PCGS Population: 10; 15 finer, just six of which are Mint State (MS-63 finest). CAC Population: 4; 5. PCGS# 8604. NGC ID: 2638. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
