Lot Description

1882-O Liberty Head Eagle. Winter-1, the only known dies. EF-45 (PCGS). CAC. Warm khaki-gold color blankets both sides of this boldly defined and appreciably lustrous Choice EF example. The 1882-O is the most frequently encountered New Orleans Mint eagle of the 1880 to 1882 era, although we stress that all three of these issues are low mintage rarities. The present example is an above average survivor from a 10,820-piece delivery, most of which grade no finer than basal EF. An endearing coin that would make an impressive addition to an advanced collection of Liberty Head eagles or New Orleans Mint coinage. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS# 8697.
