PCGS AU55

Type: 5c

Recommended Grade: XF45

According to Breen, the early die state has the '8' repunched. This fades, and the late die state has the logotype with thinner numerals. Makes you wonder whether other 'heavy' and 'thin' numeral varieties were due to relapping on the same die.

Douglas Winter states in his book that this is the most common No Motto New Orleans eagle in higher grades, despite the low mintage. However, I think the 1847-O eagle is more common.
