Lot 1136 - 1911-D $2.50 Indian PCGS MS63
1911-D $2.50 Indian. The Denver Mint struck its first Quarter Eagles in 1911 and it so happens, this created a rarity with its limited delivery of 55,680 pieces of the Indian design. From both overall and condition viewpoints, the 1911-D is the most difficult issue to find in Mint quality in this popular 20th century gold series. There is a pleasing overlay of reddish tinted-gold color on both sides, the surfaces of which also radiate frosty mint luster. The texture is mainly frosty, but we with some granular aspects that is a feature of the issue. The strike is sharp with excellent devices and a mintmark D that is just as sharp. Because it is also a key-date rarity, we encourage those in the know to expect sizeable competition when this coin debuts at auction. (#7943)
