The Certified US Gold $10 Liberty 1907 MS62 coin, authenticated and graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), represents a significant piece of American numismatic history. This coin is part of the renowned $10 Liberty gold series, which holds immense historical and cultural significance within the realm of U.S. coinage.
The $10 Liberty gold coin, also known as the Coronet eagle, was first introduced in 1838. Designed by Christian Gobrecht, the obverse of the coin features a portrayal of Lady Liberty wearing a coronet inscribed with the word "LIBERTY," while the reverse showcases a majestic eagle with outstretched wings, clutching arrows and an olive branch. The design underwent several modifications over the years, including changes to the size of the date and the addition of the motto "IN GOD WE TRUST" in 1866.
The year 1907 marked a pivotal moment in the history of U.S. coinage, as it saw the introduction of Augustus Saint-Gaudens' iconic design for the double eagle ($20) gold coin. While the $10 Liberty series continued to be minted concurrently, 1907 was the final year of production for this series.
The Certified US Gold $10 Liberty 1907 MS62 coin was struck at various U.S. Mint facilities, including the Philadelphia Mint, which was the main minting facility for gold coins at the time. The Philadelphia Mint, established in 1792, played a central role in the production of U.S. coinage and is renowned for its contributions to American numismatics.
Historical records indicate that the mintage figures for $10 Liberty gold coins varied from year to year and from mint to mint. While exact mintage figures for the 1907 issue may vary, it is known that production levels were influenced by factors such as demand for gold coinage and fluctuations in the price of gold.
Each Certified US Gold $10 Liberty 1907 MS62 coin is encapsulated in a secure holder provided by NGC. This certification ensures the coin's authenticity and assigns it a grade of Mint State 62 (MS62). Coins graded as MS62 exhibit minor imperfections such as contact marks, abrasions, or slight hairlines, but they retain much of their original luster and overall eye appeal.
Despite these minor imperfections, coins graded as MS62 are considered to be in uncirculated condition, indicating that they have never been used in commerce. They are sought after by collectors and investors who appreciate both the historical significance and intrinsic value of $10 Liberty gold coins.
The NGC holder not only provides protection for the coin but also includes important information such as the coin's certification number, grade, and variety, if applicable. This information adds to the coin's provenance and ensures its marketability and liquidity in the numismatic marketplace.
Collectors and investors interested in acquiring the Certified US Gold $10 Liberty 1907 MS62 coin have the opportunity to own a piece of American history. Whether displayed as part of a coin collection or held as a tangible asset, this coin serves as a tangible reminder of the rich heritage and enduring legacy of U.S. coinage.
