From 60,490 eagles produced in 1856, only approximately 325 have survived. Most are heavily abraded and in lower grades. “This near-Mint piece has trivial marks and splashes of delicate orange toning on its lustrous yellow surfaces.” A clear gem slider thus having brought a premium price recently at auction with serious claims to 58+ to unc. As the great late David Akers wrote
"The 1856 is very scarce in all grades and most known specimens grade only VF or EF. A small number of AU examples are known and there are a few uncirculated specimens known to exist. I have seen three that were choice and there may be a couple of others. The 1856 is more rare than the 1847, 1849, 1850, 1853 and 1855 and is comparable in overall rarity to the 1848 and 1852 although it is not as rare in uncirculated as the latter two."
A premium choice example with superb color and luster.
