Variety 1.</b> The only variety known. The 1882-O ten dollar, from a mintage approaching 11,000 pieces, is relatively available in Very Fine and Extremely Fine grades, and even About Uncirculated specimens can be located with diligent searching. Mint State pieces are very rare, however. NGC and PCGS have graded about 330 specimens in all grades, 25 of which are Mint State. No examples are found above MS63.</p><p><br /></p><p>The present MS62 offering is the single finest NGC example, and the NGC label affirms the coin&#039;s above-average eye appeal. Specifically, Liberty&#039;s hair curls, often weak on surviving 1882-O tens, are sharply defined, as are the reverse devices. Four or five of the star centers are weak, as usually seen. And while this issue is typically riddled with deep abrasions on both sides, the present coin reveals just a few scattered light marks. Significantly, these do not impede the luster flow. This piece displays excellent technical quality and aesthetic appeal for the issue and the designated grade.</p><p><i>From the collection of Donald E.
