详细说明

1842-O Liberty Head Eagle. AU-50 (NGC). A lustrous AU with much of the original satin finish remaining in the protected areas around the devices. Bright medium gold patina throughout, the detail suitably bold over the central devices. While a mintage of 27,500 pieces for the 1842-O represents a significant increase for eagle production at the New Orleans Mint, this issue remains scarce to rare in all grades. Particularly elusive are those coins that grade finer than EF, as here, which fact highlights the significance of this offering for the advanced Southern gold collector. Provenance: From the Paisley Acres Collection. Earlier ex Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society; Heritage's sale of the Eric P. Newman Collection, Part V, November 2014, lot 7465. Newman envelope included. PCGS# 8587. NGC ID: 262N. Click here for certification details from NGC.
