<B>1912 $10 MS66 NGC.</B></I> Thick satin luster, almost matte in appearance, is immediately evident over the surfaces of this eagle, which boasts a considerable amount of attractive light rose color over its gold sheen. The strike is strong, with the exception of a bit of weakness on the highest point of the eagle's wing, as sometimes seen on this date. Surface marks are at a minimum, and the eye appeal is uncommonly high even for a coin in such a lofty grade as the present piece. Not a rare date in absolute terms by any means, yet quite rare as a Gem and obviously even more so in MS66. Only two pieces have been certified finer, one of which is the MS67 piece we offered in April 2006. This is a beautiful coin, likely destined to highlight an outstanding date or type set. Census: 18 in 66, 1 finer (11/06).<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
