Description

NGC 1839/8-D AU 55. A choice example of this rare and popular Dahlonega quarter eagle. The surfaces show a rich orange-gold color and are free from all but the most trivial abrasions. Softly struck in the centers and showing a pronounced die break above the eagle's head. Very rare in this grade and easily within the condition census, this is probably the third or fourth finest known example of this issue.
