- High Condition Census 1882-O Eagle
1882-O Liberty Head Eagle. Winter-1, the only known dies. MS-62 (PCGS). CAC.
An incredibly attractive piece bathed in vivid golden-apricot and pale pink colors. The richly frosted complexion reveals subtle reflectivity in the fields. Both sides are bold to sharply struck, especially at the focal features, and remain free of any individual distractions.
The 1882-O is the most frequently encountered New Orleans Mint eagle of the 1880 to 1882 era, although we stress that all three are low mintage rarities. The present example is one of the finest survivors from a 10,820-piece delivery, most of which are circulated to one degree or another. Of the approximately 350 coins extant, only around 10 distinct examples are thought to remain in Mint State grades. This piece is situated at the upper reaches of Condition Census, especially given CAC approval, and would make an impressive addition to an advanced collection of Liberty Head eagles or New Orleans Mint coinage.
Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection-Hendricks Set.
PCGS Population: 2; 2 finer (both MS-63). CAC Population: 2; 0.
PCGS# 8697. NGC ID: 2664.
