Description

Near-Gem 1914-D Quarter Eagle
Most Difficult High-Grade Series Issue

1914-D $2 1/2 MS64 NGC. The 1914-D Indian Head quarter eagle is not too difficult to locate in MS64, but David Akers considers the date the most challenging of the series in finer grades. To date, NGC has certified only 34 coins above the near-Gem level (3/10). The present coin is an attractive specimen, with frosty copper-gold surfaces. The striking details show the usual touch of softness on the lower headdress and eagle's leg. A few minor handling marks are noted on both sides, explaining the grade.(Registry values: N2998)
