Description

1843-O Ten Dollar, MS60
Rare Mint State Example

1843-O $10 MS60 NGC. Winter-2. A bisecting die crack runs from the eagle's left (facing) wingtip to the final A in AMERICA, to the dentils beyond. The New Orleans Mint struck more than 175,000 gold eagles in 1843, although these coins were widely used in circulation and none saved for numismatic purposes initially. Mint State pieces are rare and survive primarily by chance. This coin is a pleasing entry-level Mint State piece. Orange-gold patina complements the sharp design elements and satiny luster, while scattered abrasions determine the grade. An excellent high-end example of this early New Orleans issue. Census: 7 in 60, 7 finer (8/25).(Registry values: N4719)
From The Brittany Legacy Collection, Part I.
