Additional Description: Struck in 1880 at the Philadelphia Mint, this Liberty Head Ten Dollar Gold Eagle exemplifies the elegance and enduring design of one of the United States’ most iconic gold coin series. The obverse features the familiar profile of Lady Liberty, her coifed hair and coronet inscribed with the word “Liberty” rendered with refined detail, while the reverse bears the heraldic eagle, wings outstretched in a gesture of strength and vigilance, clutching arrows and an olive branch. Believed to be in F or VF condition, the coin shows light to moderate circulation, with the central motifs remaining well defined and the overall composition intact.
