Description
1853-D Two and a Half, AU58
Low-Mintage Branch Issue
1853-D $2 1/2 AU58 PCGS. Winter 17-N. The Philadelphia Mint
produced more than 1.4 million quarter eagles during 1853, but its
Dahlonega cousin managed to strike only 3,178 examples of the
denomination. PCGS Coin Facts estimates only six different coins in
Mint State, and only 90 survivors in all grades. Third-party census
and population shows higher figures, but they include duplicate
submissions over the past 40 years or so. This Borderline
Uncirculated specimen is remarkably unabraded, and it is also free
from planchet issues or strike-throughs. The fields are
semiprooflike. The strike shows incompleteness on the lower half of
the eagle and the high points of the portrait.(Registry values: P2)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25HW, PCGS# 7768, Greysheet# 8371)
Weight: 4.18 grams
