- The 1860-O is the final New Orleans Mint Liberty Seated quarter of the No Motto design type, and the last struck prior to 1891. The secession of Louisiana from the Union in 1861 halted most coin production, although limited silver bullion supplies did allow the state of Louisiana and, later the Southern Confederacy, to produce some half dollars in 1861. The mintage for the 1860-O quarter is 388,000 pieces, and the issue is rated as Rarity-5+ in Mint State by Larry Briggs (1991). Indeed, survivors at this level are scarce and infrequently offered in today's market. This boldly and handsomely toned example represents the Broken O die state of Briggs reverse B, with the lower 2/3 of the O mintmark weak due to die lapping.
