Liberty Eagles
1858-O $10 AU55 PCGS. Variety 1. From a production of 20,000 coins, Doug Winter estimates 200 to 250 pieces are extant. Most survive in VF to XF condition, while AU coins are decidedly scarcer. The 1858-O tends to come well-struck, excluding the stars. That is precisely the case here, with sharp detail on the portrait and eagle, and incomplete star centers. Bright yellow-gold color and partial luster enliven this Choice AU New Orleans eagle.
