Lot 2188
1876 $10 Liberty. PCGS graded AU-53. Only 687 struck. A very rare date. We see the standard array of light circulation marks present in the fields and on the deves, but nothing obscures the finer details (including clear lettering in the motto IN GOD WE TRUST on the ribbon). Some luster remains within the hair curls and in the eagle's feathers all of which points to a brief sojourn as an item of commerce before being set aside, possibly in a bank vault for use as backing of deposits and paper currency. Pop 4; 6 finer, 4 in 55, 1 in 58, 1 in 60 (PCGS # 8674) .
Estimated Value $16,000 - 18,000.
