1877 $10.00. Choice Extremely Fine. Lustre and a hint of original prooflike flash outlines the reliefs, Liberty is boldly detailed with a delightfully smooth cheek, the eagle is fully feathered. This moderately circulated coin is in fact a relatively high grade survivor of a business strike mintage of only 797 pieces. Dannreuther-Garrett record 42 appearances at auction over a decade, only six in comparable grade.
