Lot Description

1868-S Liberty Eagle. EF-40 (PCGS). OGH. This rich-looking survivor is awash in even olive-khaki color. Ample boldness of detail remains to both sides, the surfaces of which are silent on the subject of notable abrasions. A scarce issue in an absolute sense, the heavily circulated 1868-S Ten entered the annals of coinage history with a limited mintage of just 13,500 pieces.
