Lot 1517
1866-S $10 Liberty. With motto. PCGS graded EF-45. Satiny luster and a few hairlines from circulation, with only moderate marks on Liberty, most of which aren't noticeable. Struck from a clashed reverse die, with the outline of Liberty's neck surrounding the eagle's head. Tiny "S" mintmark, and the coin appears to be a Philadelphia mint product at first glance. Breen notes "prohibitively rare in EF" to which we concur. PCGS has only grade 13 coins this high or higher, with the finest AU 58. An exceptional opportunity for the advanced numismatist.
