Liberty Eagles
1853-O $10 AU58 NGC. Variety 1. The 1853-O is scarce and undervalued in high About Uncirculated grades given the rarity of fully Mint State examples. This is a frosted, bright-yellow representative with ample mint luster at the borders. Traces of prooflike surface still remain around the eagle. Garrett and Guth report 14 pieces were salvaged from the S.S. Republic (just one in Uncirculated condition). Possibly this sharply struck near-Mint piece is one of those.
From The Morgan Hill Collection.
