This specimen was lot 1690 in Jean Elsen sale 165 (Brussels, June 2026), where it sold for €1,600 (about US$2,203 including buyer's fees). The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, <blockquote>"''ÉTATS-UNIS, AV 10 dollars, 1904. Petits coups. presque Superbe.'' (United States, gold ten dollars of 1904. Minor nicks, about Extremely Fine.)"</blockquote> This specimen is one of a type struck at the Philadelphia mint 1839-1907. Issues are also recorded from New Orleans (1841-60, 1879-1906), San Francisco (1854-89, 1892-1907), Carson City (1870-84, 1890-93) and Denver (1906-07). In 1866, the motto "In God We Trust" was added to the reverse. This date is common in all grades thru Uncirculated, despite the low mintage. By this time, paper currency had supplanted gold coins in circulation and most of the mint's production languished in vaults in the United States and overseas.<br />
