1851-O $10 Liberty Gold Eagle XF-40 NGC
Struck in the decade preceding the American Civil War, this 1851 ten-dollar gold piece represents a fascinating era of United States coinage. Minted at the historic New Orleans facility, indicated by the 'O' mint mark, this coin is composed of 90 percent gold and contains 0.4838 troy ounces of precious metal. Having survived decades of circulation, it carries the physical story of mid-nineteenth-century commerce. The obverse features a classic profile of Liberty, her hair bound by a band displaying her name. Thirteen stars encircle her, representing the original colonies that formed the nation. On the reverse, a proud heraldic eagle guards a shield on its chest, clutching symbols of national strength. This central motif is framed by the legend indicating the country of origin, the United States of America, along with the denomination of ten dollars.
