General Notes: The 1852/1 Humbert $10 was struck beginning on February 11th, 1852. Its reverse die — made sometime in 1851 while Moffat and Humbert awaited authorization to strike small denomination gold coins — was altered by punching a “2” over the original “1” in the date. This die cracked very early in its working life, and today no examples are known without a crack extending from 12:00 to 5:00 on the reverse. There are between 50 and 75 examples known today, 13 of which were discovered on the S.S. Central America. There are a handful of examples graded mint state, and any fully original AU58 would qualify for the condition census.
