- Fabled Low Mintage 1883-O Eagle Rarity
1883-O Liberty Head Eagle. Winter-1, the only known dies. AU-53 (PCGS). CAC.
This 1883-O, a beautiful example of a prime Southern gold rarity, is in highly desirable About Uncirculated preservation. Boldly impressed for the issuing mint, both sides offer sharp to full definition throughout the design. Warm olive-gold patina dominates the coin's overall appearance and the eye appeal is quite impressive with a lack of any distracting marks. Sure to see spirited bidding, as quality examples of this date rarely come to market.
The 1883-O is one of the most highly regarded key date issues in the challenging Liberty Head eagle series of 1838 to 1907. With just 800 coins produced, this is the lowest mintage mintmarked issue of the type, and the third lowest circulation strike issue overall after the 1875 and 1876. The 1883-O edges out even the 1859-O to rank as the rarest New Orleans Mint Liberty Head $10. No more than 50 coins are believed extant in all grades, most of which are concentrated at the VF and EF grade levels. This impressive AU eagle looms large among the highlights of our rare gold offerings this sale.
PCGS Population: 8; 10 finer, two of which are Mint State (MS-61 finest).
PCGS# 8701. NGC ID: 2668.
