<B>1877 $10 AU58 NGC.</B></I> This date is one of the important low-mintage issues in the U.S. gold coin series, with a production that totaled just 797 coins. Few have survived in any grade and Mint State coins are essentially non-existent. Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth wrote: "The overall quality of this date is quite good, with most certified examples appearing evenly over the Extremely Fine and About Uncirculated grades. However, there's a brick wall separating the circulated pieces from their Mint State counterparts and currently only two examples have overcome that hurdle." This near-Mint piece is a top-level circulated coin with only a trace of wear on the highest design points. Although the fields are lightly abraded, enough mirrored surface remains on each side to suggest that this piece was an amazing prooflike example when struck. Census: 8 in 58, 0 finer (10/06).<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
