Description

1911-D Half Eagle, MS63
Under-the-Radar Condition Rarity

1911-D $5 MS63 PCGS. The 1911-D half eagle is actually scarcer than its key-date quarter eagle counterpart, and it claims nearly as low a mintage (72,500 coins). However, this Denver issue tends to fly a bit under the radar outside the specialist community. Those in the know will recognize the importance of this Select offering. Wheat-gold surfaces are decidedly satiny with attractive reddish accents. Strike definition is somewhat soft on the headdress, while the reverse shows a better impression. Both sides are relatively free of distracting ticks, with just a few before the portrait and above the motto. Population: 51 in 63 (5 in 63+), 21 finer (9/25).
