***Auction Highlight*** 1898 Gold Liberty Eagle $10 Graded pr62 CAM details By SEGS. Up for Auction is a coin Long Held in a Private Collection. A Proof 1898 Gold Liberty $10 Eagle. Very scarce, if not rare in an absolute sense, the proof 1898 Liberty ten was produced to the extent of just 67 pieces. Not all of those examples were sold to contemporary collectors or otherwise managed to escape destruction, and Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth (2008) provide an estimate of just 30-40 examples extant in all grades. The present example features bold cameo contrast to both sides. The devices are satiny in texture, while deeply mirrored fields also reveal a decided "orange peel" texture when examined with the aid of a loupe. Dominant orange-gold color, with some light abrasions consistent with the grade. I have included a PR63 DCAM for your comparison. A Corey's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin. I give this coin my highest recommendation
