1893-CC $10 Liberty Head Eagle PCGS AU53
1893-CC $10
SKU: 16214462
A coveted final-year Carson City issue, this 1893-CC $10 Liberty Head Eagle certified PCGS AU53 combines historic Western pedigree with strong eye appeal. Scarce across all grades and sought after by both Carson City specialists and type collectors, it represents one of the last gold coins struck before the Carson City Mint ceased coining operations in 1893.
Product Description
Struck at the storied Carson City Mint, this Liberty Head Eagle (Type 3) features Christian Gobrecht’s classic portrait of Liberty on the obverse and the heraldic eagle with IN GOD WE TRUST on the reverse. The bold CC mintmark rests beneath the eagle. In hand, the coin shows warm honey-gold to orange-gold surfaces with soft amber highlights and subtle rose accents at the rims, typical of lightly circulated 19th-century U.S. gold. As expected for PCGS AU53, high points display light friction while protected areas retain traces of original luster, delivering a pleasing balance of detail and originality. The strike is confidently executed, and the fields show honest circulation marks consistent with the grade, without distractions that impair overall eye appeal.
