Pretty Mint State 1845-D Quarter Eagle

1845-D $2 1/2 MS61 PCGS. Variety 6-I. The 1845-D quarter eagle is much more elusive in Mint State grades than its sibling the 1844-D, despite similar mintages of 19,460 coins and 17,332, respectively. This piece shows a few marks consistent with the grade, but the only ones requiring mention are a scrape behind Liberty's nose and a small patch of short ticks above the hair bun. The pretty orange-gold surfaces have plenty of appeal, and in MS61 grade this piece is near the lower end of (or just outside of) the Condition Census for the issue.(Registry values: P2)
