Lot 1449

1841-O $10 Liberty. EF-40. A major rarity in this grade, with only 2,500 struck and approximately 40 known in this grade or higher, with none graded higher than AU-55 by either grading service (NGC or PCGS). This coin was broken out of a PCGS holder where it was graded XF40. Apparently unknown in full Mint State according to the various experts. Identifiable by a small cluster of tick marks near the bullet before the U of UNITED, and struck from clashed dies on the reverse. Lovely golden toning on both sides, completely original in every regard. Truly an unrecognized opportunity to purchase an extremely rare and very pleasing coin.
