This piece, graded NGC MS-61, retains full Mint State status with original surfaces that reflect the coin’s age and handling typical of the grade. Strike quality is generally solid for the issue, with clear definition on Liberty’s portrait and the eagle’s wings and shield. Light abrasions consistent with Mint State storage are present, but they do not detract from the overall visual integrity of the coin.
In terms of certification, NGC reports 158 examples graded MS-61, with 93 finer across all higher Mint State levels. This places the coin within a well-defined but limited population and underscores its appeal to collectors seeking a New Orleans gold eagle that combines historical interest with honest Mint State preservation.
