- Rare Mint State 1857-D $2.50
1857-D Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. MS-62+ (NGC).
An historic Condition Census survivor with incredibly strong eye appeal for the assigned grade. The surfaces are satiny and lustrous, toned in a blend of golden-wheat shades. The only preclusion to a full Choice designation is a touch of friction in the fields, and there are no individually distracting abrasions. Nicely defined at the centers and adorned with thin cracks throughout the peripheral devices. For the first time since 1853, Dahlonega Mint quarter eagle production topped the 2,000-coin mark with a delivery of 2,364 in 1857. Consequently, this issue is one of the more readily obtainable of its decade, thought survivors are seldom encountered above EF condition. Mint State examples are incredibly rare, with perhaps just a dozen or so distinct specimens remaining. This incredible MS-62+ ranks among the most important examples that we have offered in recent memory, and would be a fine addition to any collection of Southern gold. Only 2 coins have been certified finer by NGC.
NGC Census: 1; just 2 finer.
PCGS# 7783. NGC ID: 25JD.
