Liberty Eagles
1894-S $10 MS62 PCGS. At the time of writing in 2006, Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth reported: "None have been graded finer than MS-61 by NGC, and PCGS reports only two at the MS-62 level, tying this date with the 1893-CC eagle for the lowest condition ranking of the 1890s." In the 11 intervening years, PCGS has only added two MS62 grading events to its Population Report, and a single MS62 now appears in NGC's Census. No overseas hoards or anything of the sort have inflated the numbers, and the 1894-S remains a significant rarity in this grade. This frosty sun-gold eagle boasts fully struck stars and needle-sharp claws and fletchings. Scattered abrasions are relatively insignificant, all things considered. Population: 4 in 62, 0 finer (6/17).
