David Akers (1975/88)

A very scarce date, although when available, invariably choice. This is the last really scarce Liberty Head quarter eagle, although the dates from 1896 to 1899 are also moderately scarce. Note: Gem specimens of any Liberty Head quarter eagle are uncommon and, although the dates from 1900 to 1907 are generally termed "common dates", only the 1907 has a mintage in excess of a quarter million pieces.

Rarity and Survival Estimates Learn More

Grades	Survival Estimate The Survival Estimate represents an average of one or more experts opinions as to how many examples survive of a particular coin in three categories: 1) all grades, 2) 60 or better, and 3) 65 or better. These estimates are based on a variety of sources, including population reports, auction appearances, and personal knowledge. Survival estimates include coins that are raw, certified by PCGS, and certified by other grading services.
