1851 $10 Liberty Gold Eagle AU-55 PCGS
This ten-dollar gold piece from 1851 represents a fascinating era of United States coinage. Struck with a purity of 0.900 fine gold, the coin contains 0.4838 troy ounces of precious metal. Its survival in an About Uncirculated state allows modern observers to appreciate the intricate details of a design that circulated during a transformative decade in American history. The front of the coin features a left-facing portrait of Liberty, her hair secured by a band displaying her name. Thirteen stars encircle the central bust, representing the original colonies, with the year 1851 positioned at the base. On the reverse, a heraldic eagle stands with a protective shield across its chest. The bird holds symbols of national strength while surrounded by the legend naming the United States of America and the ten-dollar denomination, abbreviated as "TEN D."
