Product Details

Immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of American numismatic history with the $2.50 Gold Indian Quarter Eagle. This exquisite gold piece, struck by the revered United States Mint, offers a fascinating glimpse into the artistry and heritage that shaped early 20th-century currency. Its design, the brainchild of sculptor Bela Lyon Pratt, showcases a portrait of a Native American chief—an imagery that became an iconic representation of the nation's cultural narrative. Each intricate detail of the headdress is rendered in stunning relief, highlighting the craftsmanship that makes this Quarter Eagle a prized possession for both collectors and investors.

  • Authentic U.S. Mint production
  • .900 fine gold purity
  • NGC certified MS62 grade
  • Historic incuse design
  • Classic depiction of Native American heritage

The artistry and symbolism of this gold coin are unparalleled. The obverse presents a meticulously crafted Native American chief in full headdress, an homage to America's indigenous roots and a testament to the detailed work of Bela Pratt. The reverse features a majestic bald eagle perched atop a bundle of arrows—a powerful symbol of strength and readiness—bordered by the inscriptions that signify liberty and nationhood. This unusual incuse design, where the images are sunken into the coin's surface rather than raised, adds a unique dimensional aspect that is immediately striking. This innovative technique was rare for its time and remains seldom seen, making the Gold Indian Quarter Eagle a standout piece in any collection.

During its minting between 1908 and 1929, the Quarter Eagle garnered admiration for its distinctive style, a departure from traditional raised designs of previous U.S. coins. The coin's composition, featuring .900 fine gold, assures its value both as a collectible and an investment. The NGC encapsulation further guarantees its condition and authenticity, with the MS62 grade ensuring a coin that's both visually appealing and historically significant. The combination of history, artistry, and craftsmanship situates this coin as not only a collectible artifact but also a desirable tangible asset.
