1891-CC PCGS AU-58 $10 Liberty Eagle Gold Coin - CAC Sticker
Between 1838 and 1907, Liberty Eagle gold coins served as the official $10 coin in U.S. circulation until they were succeeded by the $10 Indian Head Gold Coin.
It features a design by Christian Gobrecht, the Mint’s third Chief Engraver.
The 1891-CC $ 10 Liberty Gold Eagle holds the record for the highest mintage of any $10 gold coin issued at the Carson City Mint, with around 103,732 coins struck. Despite this, many circulated or were stored loosely in bags, making well-preserved examples hard to come by today.
Today, SD Bullion offers 1891-CC $10 Liberty Eagle Gold Coins graded by PCGS as AU-58 samples, and ratified with a CAC-Sticker.
