Description

1848-O Ten Dollar, AU55
Seldom Located in AU

1848-O $10 AU55 NGC. Variety 3. Even though 35,850 pieces were struck of the 1848-O, AU examples are difficult to locate. This piece exhibits the always-seen softness of strike on the obverse, most likely the result of poor die preparation. The reverse is better-defined with softness limited to the eagle's claws and arrow fletchings. Numerous small abrasions are peppered over each side, but less so than usually seen. Only two dozen or so AU pieces are believed known.(Registry values: N2998)
