The $2.50 U.S. Indian Gold Quarter Eagle pairs meaningful gold content with one of the most distinctive designs in American coinage. Minted from 1908 through 1929, this historic denomination offers collectors and precious-metals buyers a tangible connection to the early twentieth century.
Designed by Bela Lyon Pratt, the coin is famous for its incuse relief, in which the design is recessed into the surface rather than raised above it. The obverse depicts a Native American chief wearing a feathered war bonnet, encircled by thirteen stars in recognition of the original colonies. The reverse displays a proud standing bald eagle perched on a bundle of arrows together with an olive branch, symbolizing strength and peace.
Each coin contains approximately 0.1209 troy ounces of gold and is composed of 90% gold and 10% copper. The copper alloy adds durability while preserving the coin’s classic 22-karat gold composition.
