Nice car... the seller is missing the boat by putting 4 door in the description. Anyone not paying attention would never notice it to be a two door, much rarer car.

I just noticed that this seller also is listing a 49 Kaiser Special and in that listing it has the same text that shows up in the 1952 Virginian so he must have copied and pasted and forgot to change from 4 doors to 2. Also because of identical text, it implies that both cars are from Nebraska, so maybe same collector?

The '52 Virginian being the leftover, unsold '51s makes them unique. I remember reading there were a larger proportion of '52 Virginian 2 doors because there were more unsold '51 two doors than four doors which tended to be more popular so they sold.  I like this car and it looks like a fine example.
