Lot Description

This is a special 1911 quarter eagle, among the FINEST graded, just a single MS66 finer at PCGS. We love the coin's look! Satiny brilliance can be seen on both sides accentuating the smooth fields. The details are crisply impressed into the planchet. The eye appeal is excellent. PCGS 162, NGC 163, CAC 56. There are fifteen graded in 65+ with a SINGLE MS66 finer. There hasnt been a PCGS MS65+ CAC sold in auction since February 2016, which realized $5,405. Since then, two PCGS MS65 CAC have sold in excess of that, one from the AJ Vanderbilt collection that brought $9,000 in March 2018 and one in November 2017 for $7,200. Today, if the MS66 was to sell in auction it would likely sell for $45,000-$50,000! What a great opportunity for the advanced collector of Indian Head quarter eagles. Cert. Number 36066838 PCGS # 7942
