1911-D $2.50 Indian. PCGS graded MS-64. Lovely original toning on both sides. Popular key date. Mint mark very strong. Strictly 64 quality and very frosty. Gold specialists recognize the importance of the 1911-D Quarter Eagle rarity for what it is, the key obstacle to completing a 15-piece Indian $2.50 set. The condition rarity of this issue no secret, and the obvious fact that the higher the Mint State rating the more challenging it becomes makes this date almost unaffordable in Gem MS65 condition. The acquisition of a Mint State 64 1911-D, which has all the appearance of a 65, not only requires a fair degree of steely nerves to bid upon, but the patience of Job as well since it may take months before another as fresh as this piece is sold. Pop 273; 20 finer; 17 in 65; 3 in 66. (PCGS # 7943) .
Estimated Value $25,000 - 28,000.
