1850-O Liberty Head Double Eagle. EF-45 (PCGS).This endearing olive and honey-rose example retains appreciable mint luster in the protected areas around the devices. Boldly defined for the grade with strong visual appeal in a lightly circulated New Orleans Mint double eagle. The 1850-O is the first twenty-dollar gold issue from this Southern coinage facility, and it is far scarcer than the 1851-O and 1852-O in numismatic circles. We believe that fewer than 350 coins are extant from a mintage of 141,000 pieces, this being one of the nicer Choice EFs that we have offered in recent memory.From the Paisley Acres Collection.
