# 1925-D Indian Head Quarter Eagle Gold Coin PCGS MS65. An exceptional Denver Mint Indian Head Quarter Eagle from the Bela Lyon Pratt designed series, this 1925-D gold coin represents a fascinating specimen of early 20th-century American numismatic artistry. Certified PCGS MS65, this piece exemplifies the refined gold coinage of the pre-1933 era. Struck at the Denver Mint with a modest mintage of 578,000 pieces, this quarter eagle displays the characteristic rose-tinted gold coloration with exceptional mint lustre. The coin exhibits the series' distinctive design, featuring the incuse relief technique pioneered by Pratt, with frosty surfaces that reveal minimal granularity. While the issue is known for potentially uneven striking and die quality challenges, this particular specimen stands out as a superior example. Composed of 90% gold and 10% copper, the coin weighs 4.18 grams and measures 18mm in diameter, with a classic reeded edge. With only 144 specimens graded at this level out of 793 total, this PCGS MS65 represents a scarce and desirable example of the 1925-D quarter eagle. The mintmark is typically subtle but well-defined, consistent with the series' minting characteristics.
