Choice AU 1844-D Quarter Eagle

1844-D $2 1/2 AU 55 PCGS. Among the more common D-mint half eagles, the 1844-D (17,332 pieces produced) is a noteworthy condition rarity that is typically encountered below the AU grade level. This partially lustrous example displays a pleasingly original appearance that is highlighted by green-gold color and mottled orange overtones. Both sides are sharply struck, and a few small pinscratches over the lower obverse are the only mentionable distractions.
