- Exciting 1846-D/D Quarter Eagle Early Die State Winter 7-L Attribution 1846-D/D Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. Winter 7-L. AU-58 (PCGS). CAC. A thoroughly appealing Dahlonega Mint quarter eagle irrespective of date or variety, this coin exhibits vivid honey-olive and light rose colors to near-fully lustrous surfaces. Frosty in texture with a universally sharp strike, freedom from distracting blemishes further confirms the premium quality nature of this offering. A bold naked eye variety, the 1846-D/D quarter eagle has long appealed to Southern gold specialists. Doug Winter (2013) describes this variety as the "D Near D Reverse" due to the relative positioning of the two mintmarks. The present example is a sharp middle die state of the Winter 7-L attribution with the entire lower left serif of the first D discernible to the left of the primary mintmark. Such pieces are "rare and generally command a strong premium," per Winter. PCGS Population (D/D attribution only): 7; with a single MS-61 finer. CAC Population: 4; 0. PCGS# 97742.
