Description
## 1926 $2.50 Gold Indian Head Quarter Eagle. A stunning example of the Pre-1933 Gold Indian Quarter Eagle series, this 1926-dated specimen represents the pinnacle of early 20th-century American coinage. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, this coin exemplifies the beautiful Indian Head design by renowned sculptor Bela Lyon Pratt. Certified by NGC at a premium *MS-65* grade, this piece showcases exceptional preservation and original mint luster. The soft golden-orange patina characteristic of early 20th-century gold coinage is beautifully maintained, with sharp, crisp details that highlight the intricate Native American portrait and majestic eagle design. The coin's exceptional grade indicates minimal marks and superior eye appeal, making it a prized addition to any serious numismatic collection. The $2.50 Gold Indian Quarter Eagle was a relatively short-lived series produced from 1908 to 1929, with this 1926 issue representing a classic year in the type's history. Its NGC certification 8297523012 guarantees the coin's authenticity and condition, offering collectors a remarkable piece of American monetary artistry from the roaring twenties era. *Diameter:* 18mm | *Metal:* 90% Gold | *Weight:* 4.18 grams | *Mint:* Philadelphia
