Losbeschreibung

1855-D Liberty Quarter Eagle. AU-55 (NGC). An extremely challenging coin to find with 1,123 struck for the year with survivors quite limited and appealing examples always sought after when they appear. The present piece has clean surfaces and a good strike on the obverse, while the reverse is always a bit softly struck. Satiny yellow-gold with a touch of copper around the rims. The D mintmark is quite large and nudges up to the branch and just touches the claw nearby. One of the key dates to this series and an important offering.
