<B>1842-D $2 1/2 AU55 PCGS.</B></I> Variety 3-F. With its measly production limited to 4,643 pieces, the 1842-D quarter eagle is rare in any grade, and second to the 1840-D as the rarest D-mint quarter eagle before 1853, according to Winter. This coin boasts an absolutely marvelous and bold strike for this normally miserably struck issue, the finest we can recall seeing. All of the obverse stars show full radial lines, the hair and hair cord are bold, all of LIBERTY is sharp, and on the reverse the articulation of the eagle is far and away nicer than usual. While the piece displays light circulation wear, the eye appeal is off the charts, with elegant reddish-orange coloration and no significant abrasions. As nice as they come for the grade. Population: 7 in 55, 4 finer (3/08).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Christian Gobrecht<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
