The San Francisco Mint, where this piece was struck in 1910.

Jeff Garrett writes, "As can be guessed from the extremely high mintage, most of the 1910–S Double Eagles were melted during the 1930s. Many of the survivors were shipped overseas to European or South American banks. One of the largest group of this date to surface was discovered in El Salvador during the early 1980s. Most if not all of the coins were Mint State, and the date can be easily found in all grades below MS 65. Most of the coins seen of this date are well struck with better than average surfaces."

David Akers tells us, "The 1910-S most often has a very satiny texture to the surface although I have also seen many specimens that are frosty with just a hint of granularity. Lustre, particularly on the satiny ones (and thus on most known specimens), is generally very good to excellent .... The strike is always sharp and the rims are quite round on many examples. Color is invariably very good, typically a light to medium orange or coppery gold."
