A scarce and desirable early New Orleans gold Eagle, this 1845-O displays pleasing originality and strong eye appeal for the grade. The golden surfaces show a natural orange-gold patina with light wear expected of the XF40 designation.

An attractive and well  detailed early $10 Liberty.

A better early New Orleans Mint quarter with solid detail and pleasing surfaces.
