1914 $10 MS66 PCGS. A well struck Premium Gem with boo
<B>1914 $10 MS66 PCGS.</B></I> A well struck Premium Gem with booming luster and lovely apricot and yellow-gold toning. Determined evaluation locates only trivial contact. Philadelphia Mint eagle production annually exceeded 400,000 pieces between 1911 and 1913, but in 1914, the mintage was limited to 151,000 business strikes and 50 proofs. Presumably, the reason for the reduced mintage was the outbreak of the World War in Europe. Shipping bullion was dangerous during wartime due to enemy submarines. Mintages at Philadelphia did recover to 351,000 pieces in 1915, but the facility omitted the denomination thereafter until 1926.
