1848-O $10 XF40 OGH PCGS CAC

A Scarce and Undervalued New Orleans Eagle with Original Olive-Gold Surfaces, CAC Approval and a Desirable PCGS Old Green Holder.

The 1848-O $10 Liberty Head Eagle is a historically significant New Orleans issue struck during the pivotal year of the California Gold Rush, a time that transformed the nation’s gold supply and minting landscape. With an estimated survival of only 200 examples across all grades, this issue remains exceptionally scarce and undervalued today with few collectors understanding the true rarity of this Southern gold. This XF40 PCGS, CAC-approved example presents a thoroughly original appearance with warm olive-gold and deep yellow coloration across both sides. The fields on both sides are smooth and pleasing and retains a cohesive, original surface texture that enhances overall eye appeal. Housed in an old green label holder, this CAC-endorsed example represents a choice, collector-grade survivor from an important transitional era in U.S. gold coinage. Lower grade VF35 PCGS CAC sold for $4,080 11/24 SB. PCGS Price Guide at $5,000 and $5,500 for XF40 and XF45.
