Lot 4731
1871 $10 Liberty. NGC graded AU-58. CAC Approved. Only 1,790 minted. Well struck with light toning on both sides. Reflective surfaces. An extremely splendid-looking Liberty ten, a coin with choice luster and a wallop from the dies that is amazingly close to complete given the occurrence of weak strikes in the 1870s, especially on the branch mint issues. Attractive toning suggests that the present specimen was carefully preserved away from heavy handling and cleaning abrasives. A choice example of the rare 1871 P-mint release. Pop 10; none finer at NGC (PCGS # 8660) .
Estimated Value $6,500 - 7,000.
