Description

1911-D Quarter Eagle, MS65
Only Two Finer Examples at NGC
In-Demand 20th Century Key

1911-D $2 1/2 MS65 NGC. Few issues are as well-known outside of specialist circles as the 1911-D quarter eagle. This is not only the unchallenged key date among Pratt quarter eagles, it is one of the most famous Mint products of the 20th century. Most collectors would be delighted to obtain a lower Mint State or even a well-circulated example of the 1911-D. To be sure, Gems are very scarce, highly sought-after, and out of reach for all but the most advanced enthusiasts.

This medium orange-gold MS65 representative is fully struck with a razor-sharp mintmark. Magnification reveals a few stray ticks, none of which pose any serious distraction. Soft, satiny mint luster graces each side. NGC reports just two coins finer (11/17).
