1880-O $10 Liberty Gold Eagle AU-55 PCGS
1880-O $10 Liberty Gold Eagle AU-55 PCGS
In the year 1880, the New Orleans Mint produced a remarkably small run of ten-dollar gold pieces. With a total mintage of just 9,200 coins, these Liberty Gold Eagles are highly prized by those who study the history of American coinage. The presence of the small "O" mintmark on the reverse side marks this coin as a survivor of the Southern mint's post-Reconstruction operations. Struck from 90 percent pure gold, this ten-dollar denomination contains 0.4838 troy ounces of precious metal. The obverse features a classic profile of Liberty wearing a coronet, surrounded by stars, with the date 1880 positioned below. This specific piece has survived the decades in an impressive About Uncirculated condition, officially graded as AU-55 by a professional third-party certification service.
