Indian Quarter Eagles
1911-D $2 1/2 AU58+ NGC. CAC. If held at a careful angle under a lamp, and viewed with a loupe, one can just make out a trace of friction across the eagle's wing feathers and the Indian's cheek bone. However, upon just casual inspection, the satiny straw-gold surfaces of this Plus-graded, CAC-endorsed near-Mint coin show eye appeal reminiscent of an Uncirculated grade. The strike is sharp and the mintmark bold. There was little demand for quarter eagles in 1911, and the denomination hardly circulated at all. This is reflected in the small 55,680-coin mintage of the 1911-D.
