Description

1911-D Indian Quarter Eagle. Strong D. MS-63 (ICG).

This razor sharp example will have no difficulty finding its way into an advanced 20th century gold collection. Smartly impressed with full definition throughout, even the all-important D mintmark is crisp and readily evident. Satiny luster mingles with handsome orange-gold patina resulting in a wonderfully original appearance. At 55,680 pieces struck, the 1911-D is the lowest mintage Indian quarter eagle and the only one with a mintage of fewer than 100,000 pieces. The next lowest mintage issue in this series is the 1914, which has a much higher production figure of 240,000 pieces. With so few coins struck, it should come as no surprise that the 1911-D is the rarest Indian quarter eagle in terms of total number of Mint State examples known. Eagerly sought in all grades, the 1911-D is in great demand among advanced collectors in attractive Choice Mint State quality. This is just such a coin, and it would serve as a highlight in any gold cabinet.

PCGS# 7943. NGC ID: 2894.
