Liberty Head Eagle

1843-O Liberty Head Eagle. Winter-2. AU-58 (ICG).

Plenty of lively mint luster remains on both sides, while the surfaces are enhanced by vivid deep orange and olive-gold. After only the 1847-O, the 1843-O is the most available New Orleans Mint ten from the 1840s. It is much rarer than the 1847-O in high grades (AU and Mint State), however, and the present AU-58 numbers among the finest realistically obtainable for most advanced Southern gold enthusiasts.

PCGS# 8539.

From the Steve Studer Collection.

Estimate: $ 2000
