Lot 926
1844-D $2.50 Liberty. NGC graded MS-61. Bold strike with light gold toning. Similar overall to the Harry Bass specimen which graded Mint State 61, this is a blushingly vivid yellow gold coin, very lustrous and thoroughly pleasing. That is also well struck, including minute details on the eagle's feathers makes it notable in this respect, especially as most are weakly struck at the center of the obverse and reverse.

Estimated Value $6,000 - 7,000.
