1911-D $2.50 Indian
1911-D $2.50 Indian. PCGS graded MS-65. Only 55,600 minted of which only 7,833 examples are estimated to have survived. Well struck with lovely golden toning. It is a sign of the magnitude of this Quarter Eagle collection that we are offering not one, not two, but fifteen full-scale MS65 Gem-quality examples of the Indian Quarter Eagles, with this lot comprising the crème de la crème of the series, the legendary 1911-D Indian $2.50. The PCGS-certified piece in this lot is fully impressed with sharp definition touching not only the central-reverse highpoints, but also the D mintmark on the same side and the lowermost feathers in the obverse headdress. Both sides are fully lustrous although, in observance of the standards of the issue, the finish is not as vibrant as a Liberty head $2.50 from the 1900-1907 period; instead, the luster has a wonderful if slightly granular texture. The color is a rich golden shade that, at certain angles, reveals slight mingling of reddish-gold tinting. There are no disturbing abrasions or other blemishes, indeed the most important attribute in establishing the desirability of this coin for inclusion in an advanced Registry collection of 20th century gold. Pop 16; 4 finer, 1 in 65+, 2 in 66, 1 in 66+ (PCGS # 7943) .
Estimated Value $50,000 - 60,000.

Provenance: This is part of the #3 ranked PCGS Registry Set.
