1895-O PCGS MS-61 $10 Liberty Eagle Gold Coin
The New Orleans mint was known to produce only small quantities of gold coins in comparison to the Philadelphia mint. For example, there were many years the Philadelphia mint struck millions of gold eagles - but in 1895, the New Orleans mint only struck 98,000 examples. In MS61, you will see incredible detail, a fantastic strike, a rich orange gold color, and no wear on the high points of this piece as this is clearly a mint state example. It's a coin that you probably could not find if you had a time machine and were sitting outside the New Orleans mint 129 years ago.
