Description

1906 $2 1/2 Gold Quarter Eagle. This NGC MS-65 example represents a notable specimen from the early 20th century quarter eagle series. The 1906 date falls within a period of consistent mintage for this denomination, which saw steady production throughout the early 1900s. Quarter eagles of this era remain popular with collectors seeking affordable entry points into pre-1933 U.S. gold coinage. The MS-65 grade indicates a coin with attractive surfaces and minimal imperfections consistent with the Mint State category. At this grade level, the piece displays the lustrous finish and sharp striking details characteristic of well-preserved examples from this vintage. The technical specifications of the quarter eagle—0.242 troy ounces of pure gold content—have made these coins enduring favorites among both type collectors and those building date sets. *NGC Certification #1867706003*
