<B>1850-O $20 AU53 NGC.</B></I> The luminous, dusky surfaces are predominantly yellow-gold with liberal elements of orange in the fields. The devices show excellent detail despite light wear over the highpoints. A number of abrasions pepper each side, yet the coin retains significant visual appeal. An important and interesting piece for the Southern gold specialist.<BR> Despite a mintage of 141,000 pieces, the 1850-O double eagle issue is elusive in better circulated grades today, as the port city of New Orleans made heavy use of hard money in its trade channels. The New Orleans Mint was the only facility outside Philadelphia equipped to strike the large coins until the San Francisco Mint opened its doors in 1854.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> James B.
