- 1846-D Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. AU-58 (PCGS). CAC.
The quality of this quarter eagle is superior for a Dahlonega Mint gold coin irrespective of type or date. Both sides are fully struck with crisp definition to even the most intricate design elements. Satiny medium gold surfaces are wholly original with modest semi-reflectivity in the fields. Highly appealing in all regards, this premium quality example should attract strong bids.
The 1846-D has a mintage of 19,303 pieces, a generous total by Dahlonega Mint quarter eagle standards. Indeed, the 1846-D is one of the more available Southern gold issues in today's market, although survivors are scarce with most confined to lower grades through EF. Given the rarity of Mint State examples, this exceptionally well preserved, upper end Choice AU should have no difficulty finding its way into an advanced collection.
Provenance: From the A.J. Vanderbilt Collection. Earlier from Superior's sale of the Worrell Collection of United States Coinage, September 1993, lot 1420; via Stack's. Lot tag included.
