Lot 1527
1850-O. PCGS graded AU-50. Only 40,000 struck. Even gray toning with splendid frosty texture. New Orleans Mint struck only three O-mint dates in the series, 1850-O, 1859-O and 1860-O. The 1850-O is one of this America's favorite issues in the entire Seated Dollar series. Federal records report a not overly generous mintage, and domestic circulation throughout the antebellum South undoubtedly took a toll on this delivery. Examples, therefore, are scarce in all grades. The '50-O is also a prime condition rarity, with AU coins being elusive in today's market. Add to this the fact that so many 1850-O Dollars have been dipped or cleaned and one can easily understand the desirability of the fresh, original toned specimen offered. Pop 22; 37 finer (PCGS # 6938) .
Estimated Value $2,800 - 2,900.
