- 1856-O Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter-1, the only known dies. AU-53 (PCGS). OGH. This is a sharply defined, lustrous AU 1856-O that also offers pleasing vivid olive-orange color. With just 10,000 pieces produced, the 1856-O is tied with the 1892-O as having the lowest mintage in the New Orleans Mint half eagle series. This issue is similar in rarity to the 1855-O with an extant population of only 90 to 110 coins (per Doug Winter, 2020). Superior to the typically offered VF or EF survivor in numismatic hands, the present example would serve as a highlight in an advanced Southern gold cabinet. Provenance: From the Steve Studer Collection. PCGS# 8269. NGC ID: 25UY. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
