Description du lot

1850-O Liberty Double Eagle. VF-35 (PCGS). Deep yellow-gold with orange toning overall. Scattered marks are noted, as should be expected on a well-circulated double eagle, with the most obvious one a lateral scratch from the eagle's right wing to the R of AMERICA. From the first year of coinage intended for circulation of the denomination. The New Orleans mintage for the date, 141,000 pieces, is a fraction of the number churned out by Philadelphia for the year. A nice place to start a mid-grade collection of double eagles -- right at the beginning! PCGS# 8903.
