Description

1928 Indian Head Quarter Eagle ($2.50 Gold Coin). A stunning example of the Indian Head Quarter Eagle series, this 1928-dated gold coin represents a pinnacle of early 20th-century American numismatic artistry. Struck at the United States Mint, this quarter eagle showcases the iconic design by renowned sculptor Bela Lyon Pratt, featuring an incuse (recessed) Native American profile on the obverse. Graded a pristine NGC MS-65, this specimen offers exceptional eye appeal and remarkable preservation. The brilliant luster and sharp, well-defined details indicate minimal circulation and superior strike quality. The golden-orange patina typical of pre-1933 gold coinage is beautifully maintained, highlighting the intricate design elements with remarkable clarity. As part of the Indian Head Quarter Eagle series (1908-1929), this 1928 issue represents a late-stage example of this highly collectible design. With relatively low mintage numbers and increasing scarcity, this NGC-certified coin offers an outstanding opportunity for serious numismatists and gold coin collectors seeking a high-grade representation of this classic American gold type. Specifications: - Mintage: Limited. - Metal: 90% Gold. - Designer: Bela Lyon Pratt. - Grading Service: NGC. - Grade: MS-65. - Certification Number: 6824002009
