1855-O Liberty Type 2 XF. Adequate detail on an original coin, but there is an obv scratch between E and D of UNITED along with a few opposite marks on the rev. Scarce, low-mintage New Orleans issue seldom seen. In this cataloger's opinion, the damage is relatively minor and mentioned largely for descriptive accuracy as the coin still maintains decent eye-appeal. Worth inspection! (Image)

Est. $600-800 HWC-SE

1857 Type 3 AU attractive w/ no problems. Though considered a "common" date, these are scarcer than the 1856 issue, and are encountered far less in the higher uncirculated grades than the later-date type 3's. (Image)

Est. $240-280 SE
