Lot Description

With a similar mintage (19,460 vs. 17,332 coins), the 1845-D is nearly on par with the 1844-D in terms of overall rarity. Doug Winter (2023) provides an estimate of 275 to 325 coins extant in all grades for this issue, a limited total given the strong demand enjoyed by pre-Civil War era Southern gold in today's market.
