Description du lot

This richly original example reveals plenty of mint luster beneath blended steel-gray, olive and golden-rose patina. Sharply struck with only light high point wear and a few obverse marks confirming a short stint in active circulation. Discounting the noncollectable 1853-O No Arrows, the 1852-O is the scarcest New Orleans Mint issue in the Liberty Seated half dollar series. Among certified survivors, most are in (far) lower grades than offered here.
