Description du lot
1841-D Liberty Quarter Eagle. Winter 2-D. AU-55 (PCGS). A very rare die marriage, Doug Winter (<em>Gold Coins of the Dahlonega Mint: 1838-1861</em>, 2003 edition) knows of only two examples of the 1841-D Winter 2-D Quarter Eagle. This is one of the coins known to the author, and it is a richly patinated, reddish-khaki piece. The obverse is&nbsp;the (slightly) better struck of the two sides, although at least some of the softness to the central devices&nbsp;is due to light highpoint wear. Bright and semi prooflike in sheen, a shallow obverse strikethrough (as made)&nbsp;that connects stars 12-13 should serve as a useful pedigree marker.
