U.S. Gold Coins

$20 Gold Pieces

Lot 1704
1851-O $20 Liberty. EF-45. Well struck and reflective in the fields. The curious greenish-gold which has a different look and appearance than the Philadelphia coins of this era, so one scarcely needs to see the mintmark before knowing its a New Orleans coin. The fields have rather heavy hairlines when examined with a glass, but the coin does not have the bagmarks often associated with this grade. Nice rims that show only the tiniest tick marks.
