<Our item number 98996><B>1844-D $2.50 Liberty. NGC graded MS-61.</B> Well struck. Light golden toning. Mint luster evident. It seems that most examples of this date are well struck, this piece shows noticeable boldness in the strike at the centers, which counts for a lot in today's quality-demanding marketplace. Moreover, this is such a fresh and beautiful coin that any diminishment in the luster or color could be overlooked. The fact is, there IS no diminishment at all. The coin is outstanding. Both sides have beautiful, original yellow-gold color that deepens to pale orange-gold in places. Scuffs and marks are absent. Eye-appeal is in the ascendancy.<BR><BR>And while the 1844-D is the second most common Dahlonega quarter eagle in high grades, it is very rare in Mint State. Perhaps 30 are known and graded by third party graders, with obvious duplication from resubmitting the same coin to several services. The finest graded by NGC are in Mint State 63. Only 17,332 coins minted. <B>Pop 7; 13 finer; 7 in 62; 6 in 63.</B> <BR>Estimated Value $6,000-7,000. <BR><BR>Our item number 98996<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/37jpegs//098996.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/37jpegs//098996N2.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
