Lot 3427
1842-O $10 Liberty. NGC graded AU-55. Nice golden toning on both sides. 27,400 struck. Collectors will affirm (after seeing this coin's photographs) that very few early O-mint Eagles look as bold and original as this one. The coin boasts nice, even shades of color, has only minimally abraded fields and devices, and best of all, the rims are unbroken by marks or bumps (a major plus for collectors). Any rug is limited to the high points of the hair and feathers, pointing to the lightly circulated condition in a date that is normally found much more worn. Examination also confirms the grade, there being no areas that criticism needs to focus on. One to expand the collection of any devoted No Motto buyer hoping to lock-in a choice New Orleans Mint 1842 ten. Pop 27; 22 finer. (PCGS # 8587) .
Estimated Value $3,000 - 3,300.
