<B>1853-O $20 AU50 NGC.</B></I> Rich green-gold surfaces exhibit considerable satin gold luster on both sides. This was the final New Orleans double eagle issued before the San Francisco Mint opened the next year, so it was likely produced from California gold as the color might indicate. Prior to the commencement of operations at the new Western mint, the New Orleans facility was the closest option for miners to convert their gold into federal coinage, although the U.S. Assay Office in San Francisco was an authorized government agency.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> James B.
