Lot 2185
1871-CC $10 Liberty. ANACS graded AU-50. Mintage for the year was a scant 8,085, with most suffering great indignities while circulating. In particular, this coin has moderate handling marks common to most of the large CC coinage, especially gold. Certainly a condition rarity, PCGS (this coin is graded by ANACS, but the more meaningful population report is published by PCGS and NGC) has only graded 5 coins this high, with 3 graded higher (AU-55 best). Identifiable by a small tick mark over the left wing and a toning speck on the rim between the eighth and ninth star. An important coin for the specialist.
Estimated Value $12,000 - 14,000.
