1891-CC Eagle (1891-CC $10) NGC MS62. Nice strike & lustre. Old holder. This sparkling 1891-CC gold eagle is very lustrous on the obverse through Libertys hair and the stars. All of the reverse devices also show bright mint luster. There are a few small contact marks on Libertys cheek and behind her neck in the field and a few on the reverse above the eagles head, which probably are the reason for the MS 62 grade.
The strike is better than average for the date. The coin comes in an old NGC holder. In 1866 the motto IN GOD WE TRUST was added to the coins reverse, in response to pressure organized by the Reverend M.R. Watkinson. After the 1870s, gold eagles were held for bullion in European banks. In 1933, when Americans were mandated to turn in their gold coins, the Europeans held on to theirs. Recently many uncirculated pieces have been found; however, most dates show heavy bag marks since the coins not carefully preserved.
