1901 $10 Gold Liberty PCGS MS63

The $10 Gold Liberty Coin, minted by the U.S. Mint from 1838 to 1907, is a distinguished piece of American coinage, composed of 90% gold and 10% copper, with a total weight of 16.718 grams and a pure gold content of .4837 troy ounces. Designed by Chief Engraver Christian Gobrecht, its obverse features a classical portrayal of Lady Liberty, adorned with a coronet inscribed “LIBERTY,” encircled by 13 stars representing the original colonies, and the year of issue. The reverse showcases a heraldic bald eagle clutching an olive branch and arrows, with “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” and “TEN D.” encircling the design, reflecting its $10 denomination—earning it the nickname “Liberty Eagle.” With a diameter of 27 mm and a reeded edge, this coin evolved over its long mintage, including variations like the “No Motto” (1838–1866) and “In God We Trust” (1866–1907) versions, adding numismatic intrigue. Prized for its substantial gold content and historical significance spanning the pre-Civil War era to the early 20th century, the $10 Gold Liberty Coin is an exceptional choice for investors and collectors seeking a blend of value and heritage.
