Exceedingly Rare Mint State 1854-O Large Date $10 1854-O Liberty Head Eagle. Large Date. Winter-4. MS-60 (PCGS). A handsome example featuring warm, even olive-orange color. Lustrous and softly frosted, both sides are impressively smooth for the assigned grade with outstanding originality. Well struck for the issue, as well, we note bold to sharp detail to most design elements. This popular variety features a date logotype that was intended for production of silver dollar dies. It is so large that Doug Winter (2020) opines that the 1854-O Large Date eagle "should rightfully be called a Huge Date." While marginally more available than its identically dated Small Date counterpart, the Large Date is still conditionally challenging with upper end Choice AU and Mint State survivors of the utmost rarity in numismatic circles. This extraordinary offering from the Fairmont Collection's JBR Set is sure to see spirited bidding among discerning gold enthusiasts. The most intriguing of the four die marriages reported for the 1854-O Large Date eagle, Winter-4 is a possible Misplaced Date. Close inspection with a loupe reveals what might be traces of an errant 85 within the lower edge of the neck truncation, above the right and left edges of the primary digits, respectively. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - JBR Set. PCGS Population: 2; 2 finer (MS-63 finest). PCGS# 98614. NGC ID: 263J. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
