Gem 1911-D Quarter Eagle, Key Date of the Series

1911-D $2 1/2 MS65 NGC. The unchallenged key to this popular and uniquely collectible series, the 1911-D Indian Head Quarter Eagle has long been sought by collectors both because of its remarkably low mintage of just 55,680 pieces and its rarity in high grades. Most often seen in EF and AU condition, this issue is very difficult in the higher Mint State grades and is seldom offered above the MS64 grade. Vibrant peach patina graces this nearly unmarked Gem. Crisply struck, especially on the eagle and its perch, although the headdress feathers also have impressive definition. The mintmark is bold, which is not always the case for this coveted issue. The quality of an Indian Quarter Eagle collection is principally determined by the 1911-D and semi-key dates such as the 1914, and the knowledgeable specialist knows the importance of not settling for lesser examples.(#7943) (Registry values: N10218)
