1857-O $20 XF45 PCGS CAC

This 1857-O $20 XF45 PCGS CAC is a remarkable discovery for collectors with a discerning eye. Distinguished by its above-average production at the early New Orleans Mint, this specimen showcases sharp detailing, with the O mint mark impeccably preserved. The 1857 and 1858 O emerged as anomalies in the domain of New Orleans Double Eagles with a total mintage of 30,000 and an estimated survivor count of just 209 exists! This NOLA Double Eagle exudes a unique charm. The coin is well struck, revealing an appealing patina that speaks to its circulation history, complemented by warm orange-gold hues on both sides. Noteworthy is the deviation from the common occurrence of substantial abrasions seen in coins from this era, with this example defying such characteristics. Even if this coin were to be encased in an AU holder, which we believe it should, its captivating attributes would undeniably garner attention. Last XF45 PCGS CAC sale was for $15,600 08/18 ST with AU CAC examples costing in the mid $20,000's if available for perhaps a marginally better quality. Do not let this rare Double Eagle slip past your careful consideration with its phenomenal eye appeal.
