$2.50 U.S. Liberty Gold Quarter Eagles

 

0.1209 Troy oz Gold • .900 Fine • Pre-1933 U.S. Coinage • Random Year

Why it stands out:
  • ✓ Contains approximately 0.1209 troy ounces of gold
  • ✓ Classic Liberty Head design created by Christian Gobrecht
  • ✓ Historic U.S. gold coin issued from 1840 through 1907
  • ✓ Compact fractional-gold format with a legal-tender face value of $2.50
  • ✓ An authentic piece of America’s pre-1933 monetary history

The $2.50 U.S. Liberty Gold Quarter Eagle combines meaningful gold content with one of the most recognizable designs in early American coinage. Minted from 1840 through 1907, this historic denomination offers collectors and precious-metals buyers a tangible connection to more than six decades of U.S. history.

Designed by Christian Gobrecht, the obverse depicts Lady Liberty facing left and wearing a coronet inscribed with the word “LIBERTY.” Thirteen stars surround the portrait in recognition of the original colonies. The reverse displays a heraldic eagle with a shield, holding arrows and an olive branch as traditional symbols of 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.
