U.S. Gold Coins

$10 Gold Pieces

Lot 1443
1839 $10 Liberty. Large letters. Sharpness of AU-50 but the surfaces are slightly porous from cleaning. The coin shows very little actual wear, but the obverse and reverse, even the rims, have been harshly cleaned, with resulting porous surfaces from some kind of acid bath. These type of 1838 pieces are always popular with collectors, few remain in high grade to show the swept back hair on Liberty. One that should be inspected and many will still find acceptable for their collections.
