1855 $10 Liberty Gold Eagle XF
Struck in 1855 at the Philadelphia mint, this ten-dollar gold piece represents a classic era of American coinage. It contains 0.4838 troy ounces of pure gold within its overall 0.900 fine gold composition. This specific issue had a total mintage of 121,701 pieces, and because it was produced at the main Philadelphia facility, it does not bear a mint mark. The obverse features a left-facing portrait of Liberty designed by Christian Gobrecht. Her hair is bound by a band clearly inscribed with the word LIBERTY, and she is encircled by thirteen stars representing the original colonies. The year 1855 is positioned directly below the portrait. On the reverse, Gobrecht's heraldic eagle stands with a protective shield draped across its chest. The eagle holds symbols of national strength while surrounded by the legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Below the eagle, the denomination is rendered as TEN D.
