<B>1911-D $2 1/2 MS61 NGC.</B></I> The 1911-D quarter eagle, with a mintage of 55,680 pieces, is the key to the series. Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth, in their <I>Encyclopedia of U.S. Gold Coins, 1795-1933,</B></I> write of this date: "It boasts not only the lowest mintage (by far), but few examples were saved at the time of issue."<BR> Bright brassy-gold lustrous surfaces stand out on this MS61 specimen, as does an impressive strike that imparts good definition to the design elements, including near-full detail on the eagle's shoulder. A handful of minute contact marks are noted in the raised, exposed fields. All in all, quite a pleasing coin for the grade designation.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
