1847-O $10 XF45 OGH PCGS CAC

1847-O $10 Liberty Head Eagle is housed in a coveted Old Green Holder. Struck at the historic New Orleans Mint during the formative years of Southern gold coinage, this Choice Extremely Fine example offers the exact blend of originality, technical quality, and collector appeal that advanced Liberty Eagle specialists seek. Only an estimated 875 examples survive today across all grades, making this a scarce and highly collectible issue. Both obverse and reverse are boldly expressive for the grade, with a reasonably sharp strike that brings strong definition. The surfaces retain an attractive orange-gold complexion accented by subtle lilac highlights that emerge in the protected areas, adding nuance to the overall presentation. Light, honest circulation wear is evenly distributed across the highest points, while only minor abrasions are visible though ample luster is present for an XF example. Infact, we believe this coin by today’s grading standard is undergraded. Several die cracks and faint clash marks remain visible, enhancing the originality and mint-made character of the piece.
