1845-O $10 Repunched Date MS (PCGS#88593)

Spring 2022 U.S. Coins Auction

Lot Description: 1845-O Liberty Head Eagle. Winter-1. Repunched Date. AU-58 (PCGS). CAC. This lovely eagle is drenched in a bold blend of honey-olive and deep orange colors. Boldly to sharply struck with nearly complete luster in a softly frosted texture. The 1845-O is one of the scarcer New Orleans Mint eagles from the 1840s, although a small hoard that surfaced during the early 1990s has made the issue somewhat available in the EF-45 to AU-53 grade range. Any finer and the 1845-O is rare, especially with the CAC-approved quality offered in the present Fairmont Collection specimen. This issue is also popular with specialists due to the existence of several Repunched and Misplaced Date varieties, as here. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection-Hendricks Set. PCGS Population (Repunched Date attribution only): 2; 1 finer (MS-63). CAC Population: 1; 1. PCGS# 88593. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
