Introducción de monedas
Jeff Garrett:With just 19,800 coins struck, the 1842-O Liberty Head issue has one of the lowest mintages of any New Orleans quarter eagle. The date is scarce in any grade and usually seen in lower grades. The population reports indicate that slightly more than a dozen coins have been graded Mint State. It is the author's experience that the coin is far rarer than that, and that the high numbers probably represent multiple submissions of the same examples. The date is often, but not always, seen very weakly struck in the central portions. The Smithsonian example is in lustrous About Uncirculated condition.Leer más
