<B>1851-O $20 AU58 NGC.</B></I> Douglas Winter, in his <I>Gold Coins of the New Orleans Mint, 1839-1909</B></I> (2006), says: "The 1851-O is the most common New Orleans double eagle in terms of overall rarity and the second most available in high grades." As such, the issue is popular as a type coin.<BR> A well executed strike leaves excellent definition on the design elements of this high-end AU example. Orange-gold and mint-green hues enrich both sides, and the surfaces reveal just a few minute marks, unusual for a date that has a reputation for being heavily abraded (Winter, 2006). This piece is free of copper spots and grease stains, the latter of which frequently are found on extant specimens. Partially prooflike fields are noted when the coin is titled under a light source.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
