1906 $2 1/2

Description

1906 $2 1/2 Gold Coin. This $2.50 gold piece represents a classic example of early 20th-century American coinage. Struck in 1906, this quarter eagle features the iconic Liberty design that characterized U.S. gold coinage of the period. The coin exhibits the technical specifications standard to the denomination: 90% gold and 10% copper composition with a weight of 4.18 grams. Graded NGC MS-65, this example demonstrates exceptional preservation with lustrous surfaces and well-defined strike characteristics. The Mint State designation indicates the coin has never circulated, retaining its original mint brilliance. This grade places the coin among the finer examples of the issue, making it particularly appealing to both type collectors and those assembling complete date sets of the quarter eagle series. The $2.50 gold piece remains an enduring favorite among collectors of pre-1933 U.S. gold coins. Examples in Mint State condition, particularly at this grade level, are increasingly sought after as these pieces continue to appreciate in value. This NGC-certified coin represents a solid addition to any collection of early American gold coinage. NGC Certification Number: 8663840010
