Owner Comments:

Mintage 11,100, a scarce coin in any grade.

Ex Heritage December 2013 Signature Auction where it was described as follows: 1855-O $5 XF45 PCGS. Variety 1. Only a single die pair is known for the 1855-O half eagles, utilized for all 11,000 half eagles struck at that Mint throughout the year. This Choice XF example is remarkable for the grade, with lovely lemon-yellow surfaces showing hints of green color and considerable satin mint luster.
