1881-CC $10 Liberty Gold Eagle XF-45 NGC
In 1881, the Carson City Mint struck a remarkably small run of ten-dollar gold pieces, producing a mere 24,015 of these Liberty Gold Eagles. Today, surviving examples offer a tangible connection to the legendary Nevada branch mint, which was situated right near the heart of the silver and gold rushes of the American West. This specific coin has been certified in Extremely Fine 45 (XF-45) condition, preserving the intricate details of its classic nineteenth-century design. Struck from 0.4838 troy ounces of actual gold with a purity of 90 percent, the coin features the iconic Liberty portrait on its obverse, dated 1881. The reverse displays the proud eagle motif alongside the denomination, abbreviated as "TEN D." Below the eagle, the highly coveted "CC" mint mark is clearly visible, signifying its origin in Carson City. This coin stands as a fascinating artifact from an era of pioneering expansion and western minting history.
