1902-S $10 Liberty Head Gold Eagle Coin NGC MS 65

Bullion Exchanges proudly presents the 1902-S $10 Liberty Head Gold Eagle Coin NGC MS 65. Minted at the San Francisco Mint, the "S" mintmark proudly proclaims its Californian origin, adding a touch of regional intrigue. The Liberty Head Gold Eagle series, launched in 1838, featured the iconic Lady Liberty on the obverse, symbolizing freedom and resilience. The reverse showcased a powerful bald eagle, clutching arrows and an olive branch, representing America's strength and pursuit of peace. By 1902, the series had established itself as a mainstay of US coinage, used for international trade and domestic transactions.

Established in 1854 during the California Gold Rush, the San Francisco Mint played a crucial role in processing the massive influx of gold. "S" mintmark coins, like your 1902 piece, were highly sought after due to their limited mintage and association with the Wild West era.
