OverlandTrail 的钱币相册
Only silver three cent piece minted in New Orleans. This denomination circulated widely when other small silver coinage was being melted and exported. Being only 75% silver and 25% copper the alloy was know as billion and worth less than 3 cents, thus our first subsidiary coinage. Note the bold "O" mint mark.

The rarest gold dollar for this mint. Yellowish-gold toning on obverse with nice coppery overtones on the reverse. Strong strike and so close to mint state.

The 1857-O is the last quarter eagle issued from the New Orleans Mint. This piece has beautiful green gold coloration with deep golden coppery toning. With this look it was probably part of the Jackson Hoard. There are a few minute scratches from excavation of these coins.

This piece is from the Fairmont Collection of coins. Beautiful green-gold coloration with a few marks on the lower left obverse makes this specimen very atractive. Rarer than many of its Dahlonega and Charlotte contemporaries, this coin ranks right up there with those elite issues.
One of the most common of New Orleans eagles but rare in mint state. This piece is pedigreed to the Fairmont Collection. Bright yellow gold coloration with some nicks and abrasions, but good detail and strike. A nicely produced piece with attractive eye appeal and rare in mint state.
