With only 2,500 pieces produced, the 1841-O has the lowest mintage of any Liberty eagle dated 1838 to 1858. Fewer than 100 survivors are accounted for, making this the second rarest No Motto Liberty eagle from the New Orleans Mint after the 1859-O, and the third rarest when we include Motto issues (which brings the 1883-O into play). No Mint State coins have been graded by the major certification services. With AU examples highly elusive, the 1841-O trades places with the 1859-O to become the prime condition rarity among New Orleans Mint tens of the No Motto type.

The example to the left was sold by Stack's Bowers Galleries in the Fairmont Collection Hendricks Set, where it realized $72,000.
