Lot 1460
1846-O $10 Liberty. EF-40. In the recent Harry Bass Sale in October 1999, Mark Borckardt did some research on this variety. He concluded that this is actually a damaged date punch that was also used on 1846-O Half Dollars (WB-104), and is not in fact, an overdate. Please see lot 1360 of the Bass Sale for a detailed description. There is part of the ball of the 6 located within the loop of the 6 where the date punch was carelessly made. Broken out of a PCGS holder where the coin was graded XF 40. Nice surfaces for the grade, with a typical strike showing moderate weakness on the eagle's thigh.
