{"product_id":"1853-o-10-au55-cacg-1","title":"1853-O $10 AU55 CACG","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThe 1853-O Liberty Head eagle is a compelling pre–Civil War New Orleans Mint gold issue that combines Southern branch mint history with notable condition rarity, and this CACG AU55 example from the Doug Winter Edition label is an especially desirable representative. Although the date carries a mintage of 51,000 pieces - rarer than the 1847-O and 1851-O—true high-end survivors remain elusive, with an estimated population of just 287 pieces across all grades. Choice AU examples prove genuinely scarce in today’s market. Both obverse and reverse display medium-gold color accented by subtle orange-gold highlights that deepen around the protected areas, while the surfaces retain pleasing remnants of satiny mint luster. The strike is stronger than typically encountered for the New Orleans Mint. Light friction across the high points is entirely consistent with the AU55 designation, yet the coin remains notably smooth and wholesome, with strong overall eye appeal that places it solidly in the upper echelon of surviving 1853-O eagles. No AU55 CAC example has sold recently; however a lower grade AU53 PCGS CAC sold last year for $7,800 02\/25 SB. As a Choice AU New Orleans Mint eagle with excellent originality, impressive detail, and the added cachet of the thematic signature label featuring Doug Winter's hand pick choice, this is a remarkable condition rarity worthy of inclusion in an advanced Southern gold or Liberty Head ten-dollar cabinet.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cacgrading.com\/cert\/463566780\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eCACG Cert Verification #463566780\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• PCGS Price Guide - $8,500\u003cbr\u003e• PCGS POP - 23\/34\u003cbr\u003e• CAC POP - 18\/14\u003cbr\u003e• CACG POP - 2\/1\u003cbr\u003e• PCGS Coin# - \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgs.com\/coinfacts\/coin\/1853-o-10\/8612\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e8612\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CACG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52028734865720,"sku":"463566780","price":7000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/3891\/0535\/files\/1853-O_10_AU55_CACG.png?v=1777906308","url":"https:\/\/paradimecoins.com\/products\/1853-o-10-au55-cacg-1","provider":"Paradime Coins","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
