Description

Above Average 1852-O Double Eagle, Choice XF

1852-O $20 XF45 NGC. Doug Winter, in his Gold Coins of the New Orleans Mint, writes: "The surfaces on the great majority of 1852-O double eagles are very heavily abraded. There are also a number that have mint-made planchet chips or slightly defective planchets. On the rare occasion that a clean, choice example is offered for sale, it usually brings a strong premium relative to published price levels." Considering the assigned grade, the current coin is remarkably free of abrasions or flaws and worthy of an aggressive bid.(Registry values: N991)
