<B>1852 $10 Assay Office Ten Dollar AU50 PCGS.</B></I> K-12a(2), R.5. Similar to Kagin-12, but the O in OFFICE is centered beneath the N in UNITED instead of the I. This piece is typically softly struck on the eagle, but boldly detailed otherwise. It is lustrous and modestly abraded with pleasing peach-red and lime-gold coloration. Purchased in the 1930's by Karl Stecher Sr., perhaps at face value from coins turned in by the public as per President Roosevelt's March 9, 1933 directive. A collector's envelope is included, noted "1852 10.00 f. U.S. Assay Office 884 Thous." Listed on page 351 of the 2007 <I>Guide Book.</B></I><BR><I>From The Stecher Collection.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>) <BR><BR><B>Important notice:
