Lot 4550
1840-O $2.50 Liberty. NGC graded MS-60. Only 33,580 minted. Nice even toning. A softly lustrous coin soaking up mint glow on warm gold surfaces with nothing in the way of marks or spots to censor it from its solid MS60 designated grade. The only weak spot in the strike seems to be the central part of the eagle and the left leg, traditional areas of incompleteness more due to the placement of the highest points of the design than anything else. A choice, early New Orleans Mint issue. Pop 4; 12 finer, 6 in 61, 5 in 62, 1 in 63 (PCGS # 7720) .
Estimated Value $7,500 - 8,000.
