In 1866, the motto IN GOD WE TRUST made its debut on the American eagle — but not before the San Francisco Mint struck one final, quiet farewell to the old design. Just 8,500 No Motto eagles were produced before the new type took over, and the passage of time has been unforgiving: PCGS CoinFacts estimates only 40 to 55 examples survive across all grades, making this one of the more elusive issues of the era.

The Choice XF specimen offered here is a thoroughly appealing representative of this rare type. Strong device detail speaks to a coin that has worn gracefully, while remnants of original luster linger in the protected recesses of the fields — a testament to careful handling over its 150-plus years. The surfaces carry a warm orange-gold complexion, lightly abraded as one would expect for the grade.

For the collector pursuing a complete type set or a dedicated specialist in $10 gold, opportunities to acquire this issue in any grade are rare. Finding one with this much eye appeal is rarer still.
