Description du lot

1850 Liberty Head Eagle. Large Date. MS-60 (NGC). A lustrous medium gold example that is sharply struck over most design elements. 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, and its offering in this sale represents a fleeting opportunity for the advanced gold enthusiast. NGC Census: 8; 14 finer (MS-63 finest). PCGS# 8603. NGC ID: 2637. Click here for certification details from NGC.
