***Auction Highlight*** 1857-o Gold Liberty Quarter Eagle $2 1/2 Graded ms63 details By SEGS. The 1857-O was the final Liberty quarter eagle struck at the New Orleans Mint, an important consideration for branch mint type collectors. The 1857-O is not as difficult to locate in high grade as its mintage of 34,000 pieces would suggest, perhaps because some high-quality examples surfaced in a hoard discovered in Jackson, Tennessee in the early 1980s. Most of those coins graded XF40-MS62. However, the 1857-O remains a rare issue at the MS63 grade level. The present coin is a lustrous uncirculated specimen, with well-detailed design elements that show virtually none of the usual softness on the eagle's left (facing) leg. The pleasing orange-gold surfaces are virtually mark free, but for the obverse issue at star five which causes the details grade. Both sides do radiate satiny mint luster. I have included another ms63 so you can compare the strike weakness generally evident. A Corey's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin. I give this coin my highest recommendation
