Description

1851-O Liberty Head Eagle. Winter-2. AU-58 (NGC).

With a large mintage of 263,000, the 1851-O is the second most "common" New Orleans gold eagle in an absolute sense; most survivors are well circulated, tending to be in the VF and EF range; at the AU-58 grade offered here, the date is quite scarce and is very rare in Mint State grade. Brilliant yellow-gold surfaces show just the slightest touch of friction from a short stay in Antebellum commerce. There are no distracting marks or lines of any kind to impact visual appeal. If you are looking for a nice O-Mint $10 for a type set, this is a wonderful representative.

PCGS# 8607. NGC ID: 263B.

Estimate: $3750
