Lot Description

1848-D Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. Winter 10-M. AU-55 (NGC). This is an uncommonly well struck coin in a Dahlonega Mint quarter eagle, both sides sharply to fully defined in the absence of significant wear. Bright medium gold patina throughout with a satin to modestly semi-reflective finish that is liveliest at direct viewing angles. From a mintage for the issue of just 13,771 pieces, with Mint State examples very scarce. A pleasing Choice AU such as this is sure to have no difficulty finding its way into an advanced Southern gold set. PCGS# 7751. NGC ID: 25HC. Click here for certification details from NGC.
