Description
1854-O $3 --Improperly Cleaned--NCS. AU Details. Breen-6349. To remove clashmarks, the dies were relapped, which has resulted in the loss of about half of Longacre's initials. It has also caused some of the details to be weak, which is most evident on the date, Liberty's hair, and the bow. Although the lettering is slightly soft on some parts, it is mostly bold. Cleaning has left the surfaces a somewhat unnatural pale yellow. Still, a nice example of the sole New Orleans three dollar piece, of which only 24,000 examples were minted.(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25M5, PCGS# 7971, GSID# 8662)
