Lot #366 - 1911-D Strong D NGC MS-62
Gold $2.50-Indian Head Quarter Eagle
Far and away the scarcest Indian quarter-eagle, the 1911-D gets additional respect when a grading service provides the "strong D" moniker. The mintmark seen here cannot be mistaken at all, being readily visible without the aid of a loupe. Terrific for MS-62, this well struck coin practically glitters with faintly yellowed golden hue. A topnotch example at just about the most approachable quality grade for the date.

Hammer: $1,650
Gold $5-Indian Head Half Eagle
Choice all the way with ideal color and an excellent strike. Surface grunge remains present in defiance of common cleaning practices, and the cataloger notes an small but interesting strikethrough on the reverse at far 3:00.
