1852-O Liberty Head Double Eagle, AU58
Popular Early Series Type Coin

1852-O $20 AU58 NGC. The 1852-O Liberty Head double eagle enjoyed a substantial mintage of 190,000 pieces, making it one of the more available Type One twenties. Doug Winter estimates 200-250 examples survive today in the various AU grades, making the date a popular one with type collectors. The 1852-O becomes quite scarce in AU58, and Mint State coins are nothing short of rare.
The present coin is a pleasing near-Mint example, with appealing orange-gold surfaces and much original mint luster. The fields are reflective in sheltered Areas around the devices. This example is well struck and only slight wear shows on the high points of the design. Overall, this piece makes an extremely attractive 19th century type coin. Census: 79 in 58, 14 finer (7/10).(Registry values: N1793)
