David Akers (1975/88)

A moderately scarce date. Most known specimens are uncirculated or proof. This date is significantly underpriced, as are the 1896, 1898, and 1899. All four of these dates are more rare for example than the key to the Indian Head quarter eagle series, the 1911-D, and yet they sell for only a fraction of the price of the latter. (None of them, however, are as rare in uncirculated condition as the 1911-D.)
