Designed by Christian Gobrecht, the Liberty Head Gold Eagle was minted from 1838 to 1907 and contains nearly half an ounce of gold. These coins served as vital tools of commerce during America’s expansion and are now highly prized for both their gold content and their historical significance.

The 1870-CC issue is especially noteworthy—it was the first year the Carson City Mint struck the $10 Liberty Eagle, making this coin a key date and a must-have for serious collectors of Western U.S. gold coinage. Its low mintage and strong connection to Nevada’s mining boom elevate its desirability.
