Lot 954
1875 $10 Liberty. NGC reports only 6 proofs graded and ony 4 graded as non-proof. NGC graded Proof 50. A pleasing example that spent a short time in general circulation. Traces of proof-like surface can be seen about the protected areas of the obverse stars as well as around the raised devices on the reverse. Despite the obvious wear, this example is void of serious contact marks or scratches and the rims are just fine. Upon close examination, a case can be made that this is a regular issue and actually not a proof, nonetheless, this is the kingpin of the entire Liberty series as a mere 100 were struck for general circulation and 20 were issued as proofs.
Estimated Value $45,000 - 50,000.
