Description

1856-O Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. Winter-1, the only known dies. AU-58 (NGC).

This is a well struck, sharply defined example with satiny bright golden color and pleasing surfaces. The 1856-O, with only 21,000 coins struck is the scarcest New Orleans Mint quarter eagle from the 1850s, and is particularly challenging to locate in any grade above EF.

PCGS# 7780. NGC ID: 25JA.

Estimate: $3000
