Description
1839-D Classic Quarter Eagle, AU58
HM-1, Sole D-Mint Issue
1839-D $2 1/2 HM-1, R.5, AU58 PCGS. CAC. Given the scarcity
of high-grade Classic Head quarter eagles struck by the Dahlonega
Mint in 1839, this near-Mint example takes on added importance. The
1839-D was the Georgia Mint's only representative of that series,
and nearly the entire 13,674-piece mintage circulated. The present
HM-1 variety is significantly scarcer than its HM-2 counterpart,
due to the HM-1 reverse that heavily cracked and was soon retired.
Pleasing, original orange-gold color adorns the lightly abraded
About Uncirculated surfaces. This example displays central weakness
at Liberty's ear and temple, as well as at the eagle's neck,
breast, and upper shield. The seldom-awarded CAC endorsement
confirms its overall quality and natural eye appeal. Population
(both varieties combined): 8 in 58, 19 finer. CAC: 5 in 58, 2 finer
(3/23).From The Early Aurum Collection.
