On the obverse, Lady Liberty wears a coronet engraved with the word “LIBERTY.” Her effigy also contains Thirteen stars, representing the Thirteen Original Colonies and the year of mintage.
On the reverse, the Heraldic Eagle was depicted with the national shield on its chest, arrows and oak branches on its talons, and the motto “IN GOD WE TRUST” inscribed on a banner above the eagle.
It includes the engraving “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” and the coin’s face value inscribed as “TEN D.”
An NGC MS-62 Coin
NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Company), like other third-party services, works apart from sovereign mints, evaluating and attributing grades to coins and numismatic items using the Sheldon Grading Scale as a parameter.
MS or Mint State designates a coin in the format of a business circulation coin. Grade 62 suggests that the coin may present marks and hairlines in focal areas but with an acceptable overall appearance.
