The 1925-D is exceptionally common and is the best bet for those looking for a singular type coin anywhere under gem condition. The Mint pumped put quite a few of these but did not seem to replace the dies timely enough. There is a wide variety of strike strength, mintmark visibility and overall surface quality and coloring to choose from. When looking for one of these there are plenty of nice ones and even more unpleasing examples so you must be meticulous.

Obverse Description

The obverse features the portrait of a Native American chieftain in formal headdress struck incuse with the words LIBERTY at the top and the date at the bottom. 13 stars frame the left and right sides: 6 at left and 7 on the right.

Reverse Description

The traditional American eagle struck incuse in the center with the words, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA at top, E PLURIBUS UNUM left of the eagle, and IN GOD WE TRUST to the right of the eagle. The denomination 2 1/2 DOLLARS struck below the eagle.
