- 1860-O Liberty Head Eagle. Winter-2. AU-58 (NGC).
Ample evidence of a prooflike finish remains, both sides also sporting razor sharp to full striking detail to virtually all design elements. Handsome medium gold patina with superior preservation and eye appeal for this challenging issue. The mintage of 11,100 pieces for the 1860-O eagle was released during the tumultuous months that led up to the Civil War. Each coin represented considerable buying power so not many were saved, and most of those known today exhibit moderate to considerable wear. It is estimated that no more than 10 exist that are truly Mint State, the finest of which are certified MS-63. For collectors with more realistic goals, there are also not that many examples extant in the upper ranges of AU, so this example is certain to attract considerable attention from knowledgeable numismatists. This New Orleans Mint issue is roughly on par with the rarity of the 1846-O and 1850-O eagles.
NGC Census: 29; 7 finer (MS-63 finest).
PCGS# 98631. NGC ID: 2645.
