Description: 1851 $10 Liberty Head Gold EaglePCGS/CAC graded XF45, NFC Secure Garrett and Guth in their "Encyclopedia of U.S. Gold Coins" states, "The 1851 eagle might appear to be a common coin at first glance, but it is much scarcer than the mintage indicates. It is comparable in rarity to the 1848 and 1854, but much scarcer than the 1841, 1844-O, 1847, 1847-O, 1849, 1851-O and 1852 (to name a few). Circulated examples are available up through AU50, after which the rarity increases dramatically." Q. David Bowers' "Red Book" for gold eagles suggests that between 1200 and 1500 1851 eagles exist, however this seems like an inflated number or a typo (200-500 seems to be a more accurate number). To date only 550 1851 eagles have been graded by PCGS (215) and NGC (335) and that number includes resubmissions. The PCGS CoinFacts suggests a total population of only 225 exist in all grades and Garrett and Guth list a "graded" population figure of 393 (2008). David Akers auction analysis states, "This date is rare and underrated in all grades" PCGS/NGC graded population 555Mintage 176,328 Will ship via USPS Priority Mail Express, signature required
