***Auction Highlight*** 1843-d Dahlonega Small D Gold Liberty Quarter Eagle $2 1/2 Graded Select AU By USCG. Variety 4-F. (per Doug Winter's second edition and revised attribution system). Small mintmark; reverse of 1842. One of the three small mintmark varieties of this year. Easily identifiable by a reverse die crack through the F in OF. Bright Yellow-gold surfaces exhibit significant remaining mint luster especially in the perimeter. Typical strike for the date with some weakness at the eagle's dexter leg. Not heavily marked and laden with in-hand eye appeal. The vast majority of collectors will have to settle for a heavily circulated coin, usually in VF condition, for in XF the coin becomes scarce and rare in AU. In Mint State, it is virtually unknown with. Doug Winter listing just two MS-62 examples in the upper half of the Condition Census for this issue. In fact only 13 Mint state examples survive in all grades. This AU example would make a great addition to a high end collection. A Corey's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin
