1856-S $10
Lot 1297
1856-S $10
This is an original looking representative with a relatively clean, lightly circulated appearance. All areas are richly colored in green-gold hues with subtle reddish overtones. A few of the obverse star centrils are a little softly defined, but the balance of the devices are quite sharp despite a little light rub. Both sides are a bit scuffy from time spent in circulation, but there are only a single abrasion on Liberty's neck worthy of singular mention. The 1856-S is a conditionally scarce issue in grades above the XF level. (PCGS 8621)
