1850'O' About Uncirculated. A frosty and attractive coin for the collector, although a small area of pin scratches residing left of the mintmark presents a challenge. The strike is sharp, and Liberty's face and neck are clean for an early Double Eagle that has seen any circulation. Interest in New Orleans coinage has risen dramatically in the past decade, as more collectors narrow their focus to individual mints or series. This is the first year of issue for the denomination, and the New Orleans Mint produced Double Eagles in limited numbers for the next several years.
