Denomination: 10 Dollars Year: 1906 Mint: Denver Mint Grade/Condition: F or VF Metal: 90% gold, 10% copper Weight (+/- 0.2g): 16.7 grams Additional Description: Struck in 1906 at the Denver Mint, this Liberty Head Ten Dollar Gold Eagle represents one of the final issues of the long-running series before its replacement by the Indian Head design the following year. The obverse features the classic portrait of Lady Liberty, her hair bound beneath a coronet bearing the inscription “Liberty,” surrounded by thirteen stars and the date below. The reverse depicts the heraldic eagle, wings spread in strength, clutching arrows and an olive branch to symbolize both military readiness and peace. Believed to be in F or VF condition, the coin shows gentle circulation yet retains much of its original detail and appeal.
