1882-O $10 MS (PCGS#8697)

Winter 2022 U.S. Coins Auction

详细说明: Condition Census 1882-O Eagle 1882-O Liberty Head Eagle. Winter-1, the only known dies. MS-61 (PCGS). An incredibly attractive piece bathed in vivid orange-olive and pale apricot 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 near the upper reaches of Condition Census, and would make an impressive addition to an advanced collection of Liberty Head eagles or New Orleans Mint coinage. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - CBL Set. PCGS Population: 14; 4 finer (MS-63 finest). PCGS# 8697. NGC ID: 2664. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
