Lot 1334
1850-O. PCGS graded AU-53. A nice example of this first year of issue for the double eagle from the New Orleans Mint. Coined in the expected greenish-yellow gold for this Mint, the surfaces show scattered abrasions which blend into the devices and fields rather well. The sharp strike is still evident, and the eye appeal is high for this popular date and mint. A condition rarity at this grade level and a coin that is worthy of a strong bid. Pop 29; 18 finer, 12 in 55, 4 in 58, 1 in 58+, 1 in 61. (PCGS # 8903) Estimate Value $15,000 - 17,000
