1911-D Indian Quarter Eagle. MS-63 (NGC).This handsome quarter eagle is fully Choice with a generally smooth honey gold appearance and lustrous surfaces. Both sides are sharply struck over all devices including the D mintmark. There are only three mintmarked issues in the Indian quarter eagle series of 1908 to 1929, and all are attributed to Denver. Of these the 1925-D is common, the 1914-D is scarce in Mint State, and the 1911-D is the key issue of this type. The mintage of 55,680 pieces is far and away the lowest among Indian quarter eagles, and even in circulated grades the 1911-D commands a premium commensurate with its scarcity and desirability. In Mint State this is the rarest issue in this series and the lovely MS-63 offered here will be perfect for an advanced gold collection.
