Description

Pleasing 1844-O Half Eagle, MS62

1844-O $5 MS62 NGC. Variety 1. Ex: S.S. New York. From a large mintage of 364,600 pieces, the 1844-O half eagle is the most available Liberty Head five dollar gold coin from the New Orleans Mint. Most examples seen are in circulated grades, with Mint State specimens decidedly elusive. The present coin is an attractive example, well struck, with frosty luster, and a few handling marks in the fields that are consistent with the grade. Census: 10 in 62, 15 finer (6/09).
