<B>1899-O $10 MS64 NGC.</B></I> "The level of eye appeal for this date tends to be lower than many New Orleans issues from the 1890s. The typical 1899-O eagle is very bagmarked, somewhat dull and lacking good color. Flashy appealing examples are very scarce and underrated." So Winter (2006) assessed this turn-of-the-century O-mint eagle issue. Yet a handful of exceptional pieces survive, among them this delightful near-Gem, cited in Winter's reference. The strike is crisp and the luster flashy, with thin skeins of sunset-orange lacing through the yellow-gold of the surfaces. Faint, scattered marks in the fields are entirely consistent with the grade.
