Lot 1026
1907 $10 Indian. Wire rim, periods. PCGS graded MS-65. The so-called knife rim or wire rim variety was caused by striking pressure forcing metal between the collar and the dies, resulting in a fine wire like projection at the extremities of the plain fields. In addition, triangular shaped periods appear before, after and between each word of the reverse legends and there are small round periods before and after each line of the motto. Five hundred were struck and distributed to officials and others. This satin finish gem specimen is well struck and displays a warm golden sunset glow. Pop 42, with 10 in 66 and 2 in 67 as the best graded at PCGS (PCGS # 8850) .
Estimated Value $45,000 - 55,000.
