Description
1855-O Ten Dollar Liberty, AU58
Variety 2, Normal Date
1855-O $10 AU58 NGC. Variety 2. Doug Winter reported two
varieties of 1855-O eagles, one with a repunched date and the other
with a normal date as offered here. Our own analysis suggests that
the first variety is actually the result of machine doubling.
However, additional varieties may be awaiting discovery as four
obverse dies were shipped to New Orleans for the 1855-O eagle
coinage. The 18,000 coin mintage was a sharp drop from previous
years as the San Francisco Mint operated for their first full year
in 1855. This example ranks among the finest of survivors. Just two
Mint State pieces are known, along with a small number of AU58 and
AU55 examples. While lightly marked, this example has nearly full
mint luster with satiny yellow-gold surfaces. An appealing example
for the advanced collector. Census: 10 in 58, 0 finer
