- This uncommonly well produced and preserved example is sure to catch the eye of advanced Southern gold collectors. Both sides are sharply struck throughout, even at the high points in and around the centers - atypical of the issue. Bright sunset-golden color blends nicely with lively mint luster. With smoother surfaces than one might expect at the assigned grade level, this coin is almost certain to sell for a strong bid. The 1844-D (17,332 pieces produced) is one of the more obtainable Dahlonega Mint quarter eagles in today's market, with circulated coins in VF and EF representing popular choices for many mintmarked gold type collectors. As with all D-Mint Liberty Head quarter eagles, however, the 1844-D is highly elusive in Mint State. Doug Winter (2023) accounts for only 10 to 15 uncirculated survivors, confirming the fleeting nature of this offering in today's highly competitive numismatic market.
