An exceptional $2.50 gold piece from the early 20th century, this 1901 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle represents a pristine example of classic American gold coinage. Certified by NGC at a remarkable *MS-65* grade, this specimen showcases the refined artistry of the Liberty Head gold series with exceptional preservation and eye appeal. The coin features the iconic Liberty Head design by Christian Gobrecht, with a beautifully rendered portrait of Liberty wearing a coronet on the obverse, surrounded by thirteen stars representing the original colonies. The reverse displays a heraldic eagle with outstretched wings, a quintessential motif of late 19th and early 20th-century American coinage. Its NGC certification #11505106 guarantees the coin's authenticity and outstanding state of preservation.
