***Auction Highlight*** 1854-o Winter-6 Gold Liberty Quarter Eagle $2 1/2 Graded ms61 details By SEGS. Up for Auction is an uncirculated example of the Variety 6, 1854-o. In the second edition of his New Orleans gold reference, Doug Winter notes that numerous die varieties exist, and describes three of them. This piece appears to be different from any of those, and has currently been designated as Variety 6 of 7 known varieties, and tied for the scarcest variety. The obverse has the 1 in the date low and close to the border with its left base nearly touching the denticles. The 4 is approximately centered between the base of the neck and the border. The obverse of this piece is machine doubled, confusing attribution. The reverse has the tip of the fraction bar below the inside left curve of the mintmark, with the arrow feather visible inside the mintmark.
