1851-D Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. Winter 15-N, the only known dies. AU-50 (PCGS). Offered is a lustrous, vivid and exceptionally attractive AU example of one of the more underrated issues in the Dahlonega Mint quarter eagle series. Blushes of pinkish-rose iridescence blend with dominant deep orange-gold color. Plenty of bright, frosty luster remains, the reverse typically soft over the high points of the eagle, but the obverse more sharply struck with universally bold detail. Pleasingly smooth in hand with abundant eye appeal, this scarce AU example represents a significant find for specialists who appreciate the underrated nature of the 1851-D. PCGS# 7761. NGC ID: 25HN.
