1842-O Liberty Head Eagle. VF-30 (PCGS). This visually appealing example also offers solid technical quality for a circulated early date Liberty eagle. Boldly defined details throughout from a well balanced and nicely executed strike, the patina an even warm olive-gold. The New Orleans Mint certainly stepped up production in this, its second year of coining ten-dollar gold eagles. Whereas the 1841-O has a mintage of just 2,500 pieces, the 1842-O was produced to the extent of 27,400 coins. This is certainly a more obtainable issue in today's market, but with fewer than 250 survivors accounted for across the numismatic grading scale, the 1842-O remains scarce in an absolute sense. PCGS# 8587. NGC ID: 262N.
