硬幣介紹
Jeff Garrett:The mintage for the 1856-O Liberty Head quarter eagle is much smaller than for the previous issue of the denomination from the New Orleans Mint. It is correspondingly much rare. The date is extremely rare in Mint State and almost never seen. The highest coin graded to date is an MS 62 example. The coin in the Smithsonian also grades MS 62 and is among the finest known. The rarity for the 1856-O quarter eagle compares very favorably to that of its Southern mint counterparts. The popularity of New Orleans gold has not reached that of the Dahlonega and Charlotte issues, but with more information available, that may someday change. Most coins are struck in typical form for the New Orleans Mint and the era.閱讀更多
