Description

Choice AU 1846-D Two and a Half

1846-D $2 1/2 AU55 NGC. Variety 7-J. Four varieties exist for the issue, of which three share the same obverse die, while a fourth has both dies apparently unique to this single year and marriage. Like so many D-mint quarter eagles, the 1846-D is usually seen in VF/XF condition, while AU coins are rare and Mint State examples are extremely rare. The 7-J variety is scarce. This piece has bright yellow-gold surfaces with a tinge of red around the devices. The striking details are slightly soft and the only noticeable marks are located in the reverse fields.
