Liberty Double Eagles
1851-O $20 AU55 NGC. Variety 2. Ex: Bass. If a No Motto New Orleans double eagle for type purposes is being considered, look no further than this Choice About Uncirculated example from the most collectible issue from the facility. The 1851-O claims a mintage of 315,000 coins and is usually obtainable through XF and lower AU grades without much trouble. Apart from softness at the upper obverse, this light yellow-gold example exhibits crisp detail. Abraded with wispy marks.
Ex: Possibly Dick Martin (11/1971); Harry Bass Collection Part IV (Bowers and Merena, 11/2000), lot 795.
