1882-O Ten Dollar, MS61
Condition Census Example

1882-O $10 MS61 PCGS. Variety 1. The 1882-O is the most available of the low-mintage trio of New Orleans eagles made between 1880 and 1882. It has become relatively available in circulated grades from hoards that have been uncovered in Europe. Uncirculated examples remain rare with around a dozen known; mostly in the MS60 to MS61 range.

This former Jacobson coin is listed in the Condition Census for this date in Doug Winter's recent book on New Orleans gold. It is well-struck and beautifully toned in shades of deep orange-red, with glints of hazel-silver near the rims and on the high points.
