The Scarce 1857-O. PCGS XF40
Metal: Gold (0.900). Weight: 33.44 grams. Diametre: 34 mm.
In 1857 the New Orleans mint increased its mintage of Double Eagles to 30,000 pieces which is more than the previous three years.
However, the 1857-O is still an elusive key date for as few as 200 – 250 pieces are remaining in total. It's still difficult to find them on the open market.
This one is a good opportunity to access this very sought year.
