It has been overshadowed for many years by the towering rarity of the 1854-O and 1856-O, but the '57-O is a significant rarity in its own right as well. Only 30,000 pieces were produced, and it is estimated that a mere 14-17 examples are believed extant today at the AU level out of a total population of 75-80 pieces. As with all the examples we have seen of this issue, this piece has bright prooflike fields. The striking details are above average with especially strong definition on the obverse. As one would expect from a coin that has been lightly circulated, the surfaces display a number of small abrasions. However, the only one that is of singular note and could be used as a pedigree identifier is a vertical mark in the lower right obverse field. </FONT></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><BR><A name=PricesRealized></A><TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%" bgColor=#000000 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD width="100%"><TABLE cellSpacing=1 cellPadding=3 width="100%" border=0><TBODY><TR><TD width="100%" bgColor=#79735c><A name=PR><FONT face=arial color=#ffffff size=3><B>Previous Prices from Heritage Auctions</B> </FONT></A></TD></TR><TR><TD bgColor=#f6f6ed><TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%" border=1><TBODY><TR><TD align=middle width="33%"><B>Date</B></TD><TD align=middle width="33%"><B>Service</B></TD><TD align=middle width="33%"><B>Price</B></TD></TR><TR bgColor=whitesmoke><TD width="33%"><B>08/02/1997</B></TD><TD width="33%">PCGS</TD><TD width="33%">$4,830.00</TD></TR><TR bgColor=whitesmoke><TD width="33%"><B>01/01/1997</B></TD><TD width="33%">NGC</TD><TD width="33%">$5,500.00</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR><TR><TD bgColor=#ffffff><FONT face=arial size=1 ?>PLEASE NOTE: All prices realized reflect the final hammer price PLUS the buyer's premium in auctions that charge a buyer's premium.
