Description

1855-O Half Eagle, XF45
Exceptional Color and Surfaces

1855-O $5 XF45 PCGS. Variety 1. Doug Winter calls the 1855-O "among the hardest half eagles from this mint to locate in any grade." Only 11,100 pieces were struck, and it is believed that just 90 to 110 coins survive in all grades. This Choice XF representative displays outstanding old-time color, yielding olive-gold and peach-yellow hues. Traces of luster remain in design crevices. One thin diagonal mark on the cheek, but otherwise minimally abraded. A strike-through below the first T in STATES is as made. Population: 15 in 45, 37 finer (8/22).
