Liberty Eagles
1844-O $10 AU55 PCGS. Variety 1. Most examples of this early New Orleans issue circulated and were lost to attrition. A handful of Mint State pieces survive but they are far out of reach for most collectors. This Choice AU representative displays sharp detail and hints of luster. The yellow-gold surfaces exhibit scattered abrasions, as normal for New Orleans gold of this period. Population: 12 in 55 (1 in 55+), 14 finer (7/17).
