The $10 Liberty Head Gold Eagle was first minted in 1838 and continued production until 1907, making it one of the longest-running designs in U.S. coin history. The designer, Christian Gobrecht, created this coin during an era when the U.S. Mint was establishing a reliable currency for a rapidly growing nation. The coin was part of the U.S. gold standard at a time when gold coins were critical in both domestic and international trade.
The 1900 proof issue marks the dawn of a new century, with only 120 proof coins minted, making it exceedingly rare. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, proof coins were made for collectors and VIPs rather than for circulation, thus retaining exceptional details. The PF66 Ultra Cameo designation indicates that this coin is in nearly perfect condition, with deep contrast between the frosted devices and the highly polished, mirrored fields, making it visually striking.
