Description
1855-O Variety 2 Eagle, AU58
Impossible Rarity Finer
1855-O $10 AU58 NGC. Variety 2. Only 18,000 eagles were
minted in New Orleans throughout 1855, as gold coin production
shifted to the new San Francisco Mint that opened the previous
year. The 1855-O eagle is rarely seen in higher grades, and NGC has
never certified a Mint State example. Only two such pieces appear
in the PCGS population data. Only a trace of wear appears on the
high points of this lustrous green-gold beauty, with trivial
marks.From the collection of Donald E. Bently, sold for the benefit of the Bently Foundation.(Registry values: N4719)
Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 263M, PCGS# 8617, Greysheet# 9448)
