As described in CoinFacts:
Variety 4-I (formerly 4-H): Large Mintmark. It is believed that 3,537 1843-D quarter eagles using this reverse were struck on October 7, 1843. This reverse was used in 1843, 1844 and 1846. The shaft of the arrow is joined to the mintmark at the right edge of its upright. The fraction bar extends to the left side of the opening in the mintmark. Feathers fill the upper part of the opening in the mintmark and extend down to near the center of the opening. The mintmark is slightly rotated counterclockwise from the upright towards the eagle’s talon. The right edge of the upright of the 1 in the fraction is a little to the left of the lower serif of the mintmark. PCGS census: 2@VF35, 1@XF40, 2@XF45, 3@AU50, 1@AU53, 2@AU58, 2@MS61. None finer.
This coin 1 of only 2 passed by CAC in all grades for the variety (VF-35, AU-50).
The cloudy spot above Liberty's ear is a slight scuff on the outer surface of the holder.
