<B>1894-S $10 MS62 NGC.</B></I> At the time the Garrett-Guth <I>Encyclopedia of U.S. Gold Coins </B></I>was published (2006), there were two PCGS-graded MS62 pieces of this issue, and none at NGC. The latter service has since certified this piece as the single finest and only MS62 (1/08). The gold authors call the issue "rare in any Mint State grade" and add that "auction records are relatively meaningless, as neither of the [PCGS] MS-62 coins have appeared on the market."<BR> This, then, appears to be the sole MS62 survivor currently available. The orange-gold surfaces offer beaming luster, with numerous tiny, undistracting and grade-consistent ticks that constitute the grade. The strike is bold, and the eye appeal is quite high on this elusive and underrated issue.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Christian Gobrecht<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
