1854-O $5 Liberty Gold Half Eagle XF-45 PCGS
In 1854, the New Orleans branch of the United States Mint struck a limited run of gold five-dollar coins, producing only 46,000 pieces. This particular issue features the iconic Liberty design on the obverse, surrounded by stars, with the year 1854 positioned below her portrait. The reverse displays a heraldic eagle clutching arrows and an olive branch, with the distinctive 'O' mintmark of the Louisiana facility positioned beneath the eagle's perch. Struck from 0.900 fine gold with a gold content of 0.2419 troy ounces, this coin represents a fascinating era of southern branch minting. It has survived the decades in Extremely Fine condition, graded as XF-45, preserving the intricate details of the engraving and the historical legacy of the pre-Civil War New Orleans Mint.
