1849 G$10 Cincinnati Mining & Trading, K-3 MS
Greysheet Catalog Details (GSID: 11737)
Today, there are three collectible examples of the 1849 Cincinnati Mining & Trading $10, all of which grade AU. One of these is struck over a J.S. Ormsby $10, suggesting that Cincinnati Mining & Trading (or someone with their dies) was actively striking coins after J.S. Ormsby. Two examples are permanently impounded at the Smithsonian, including a choice BU specimen that was removed from a bullion deposit in 1849 or 1850. The Dupont specimen — stolen in 1967 — was at one time called plain edge but the earliest description of the piece (H. Chapman: 06/18/1908: 506a) describes it clearly as “border milled”, suggesting that the Kagin-2 variety probably does not exist.
Obverse: Native American facing left CINCINNATI MINING & TRADING COMPANY.
Reverse: Eagle bearing a shield, arrows, and laurel, CALIFORNIA TEN DOLLARS, 1849.

About CDN Prices
All CDN prices are based on proprietary market knowledge and technology developed by CDN Publishing, LLC.
CPG® prices represent retail levels. Collectors should refer to CPG values as a starting place for their negotiations, or auction bid reference.
Greysheet/Greensheet prices are wholesale market levels for collectible coins/paper money intended to indicate what a dealer, or wholesale, buyer would pay for the described item in the specified grade. Greysheet/Greensheet represent "sight-seen" values based on a buyer's in-hand review. The actual value can be more or less than this depending on factors including eye appeal and market timing.
Bluesheet (NGC & PCGS) prices represent the highest sight-unseen offers to buy on dealer networks like CDN Exchange. In many cases, there are no active sight-unseen buy offers, so CDN looks to the recent lowest market values for such an item. For this reason, Bluesheet values typically represent the floor of the market for the specified item. CDN only tracks Bluesheet on certain items.
CAC prices are for U.S. coins that meet the standards of the Certified Acceptance Corporation. You can learn more about CAC on their web site.
Price movement is indicated for price changes in the last 30 days.
The prices listed in our database are intended to be used as an indication only. Users are strongly encouraged to seek multiple sources of pricing before making a final determination of value.
