Description

Choice XF 1850-O Twenty

1850-O $20 XF45 PCGS. New Orleans struck double eagles for a dozen years through 1861, and again in 1879, but mintages in most years were token, and in every instance were less than any same-year productions at either Philadelphia or San Francisco. The first-year 1850-O is available by O-mint standards, but is nonetheless very scarce and essentially unobtainable in Mint State. This is a typical green-gold example that has glimpses of luster and distributed moderate marks. Population: 58 in 45, 58 finer (5/10).(Registry values: N1793)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 268G, PCGS# 8903, GSID# 9843)

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
Weight: 33.44 grams
AGW: 0.9675oz
Mintage: 141,000
