***Auction Highlight*** 1847-o Gold Liberty Eagle $10 Graded au58+ By SEGS (fc)
***Auction Highlight*** 1847-o Gold Liberty Eagle $10 Graded au58+ By SEGS. A lovely early O-Mint eagle that combines originality and condition rarity. Handsome golden-olive color blankets both sides and mingles with nearly full satin to softly frosted luster. Well struck by the standards of the New Orleans Mint, the central high points are a bit soft, but all other features are sharp. Modest semi-reflectivity in the fields enhances already strong eye appeal. Produced to the extent of 571,500 pieces, the 1847-O is by far the highest mintage eagle from the New Orleans Mint. It is the most common No Motto Liberty Head ten from this coinage facility with survivors available in circulated grades through the lower reaches of AU. In Choice AU and Mint State, however, this issue develops into a significant condition rarity, as do most early eagles of this design type. Not many more than 20 Uncirculated coins are believed extant, confirming the significance of this minimally circulated survivor A Key Date's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away Coin
