Description

Liberty Head Double Eagle

1850-O Liberty Head Double Eagle. EF Details--Cleaned (PCGS).

Honey-gold shades across the high points accent the overall pale-khaki patina. Somewhat bright from an old cleaning, though the eye appeal remains excellent. The 1850-O is one of the more challenging early date New Orleans Mint double eagles to collect. Survivors are rarer than those of the 1851-O and 1852-O issues, and most are well worn in grades such as VF. With its first year status resulting in particularly strong demand among mintmarked gold type collectors and New Orleans Mint enthusiasts, this lustrous 1850-O double eagle is sure to find many willing buyers.

PCGS# 8903. NGC ID: 268G.

Estimate: $ 3000
