1878-CC $10 Gold Coin NGC AU-53
Attractive yellow-gold surfaces that exhibit ample remnant luster and a strong strike. The look is far cleaner than what is normally seen on early CC gold. Marks are few and minor with none of significance. The 1878-CC is among the rarest eagles from not only the Carson City Mint but also in the entire $10 Liberty series. Of 3,244 pieces minted, only a scant 60-75 pieces are believed to still survive. Only 15 pieces have graded finer at NGC with the highest graded being a single MS-61 example.
