Description du lot

A beautiful orange-honey example with boldly impressed design elements and nearly full, frosty mint luster. From a mintage of 46,000 pieces, survivors of which likely number no more than 300 coins at all levels of preservation. Even so, this figure is sufficient to rank the 1854-O among the more readily obtainable pre-Civil War era New Orleans Mint half eagles. With the premium Choice AU quality, extraordinary eye appeal and CAC approval offered here, however, examples are rare.
