Here's a very special New Orleans coin - I call it the double O variety - until now undiscovered. It's an 1855 Half dollar with an O mint mark in the traditional reverse location and another rare O in the obverse date area. Bidding starts at $1 million.   As you can see it also can be used to remove bottle caps.

Wow, beautiful gold, but I don't understand how mint marks are placed on quarter eagles  How does the O get under the arrow fletching?
