SS Republic. 1839/8 $10 Liberty Eagle, Type of 1838. To the best of our knowledge, none of the recovered 1839 $10 Eagles from the S.S. Republic shipwreck have ever appeared for sale at public auction. IF and WHEN they might change hands, it is usually done privately and quickly - these coins are THAT desirable. In fact, we only handled one other coin, an XF45 SSR and placed it with one of clients in March of 2017. According to NGC, they've certified a mere five (5) of the 1839 Type of '38 $10 gold eagles from the S.S. Republic shipwreck out of total of only nine (9) recovered. It's been our experience the other four (4) coins were quite possibly impaired or too corroded (or encrusted with sea life) to be placed into a holder.
