Description

1928 Indian Head Quarter Eagle, $2.50 Gold Piece. This 1928 Indian Head Quarter Eagle represents a desirable example from the final years of this iconic series. The Quarter Eagle, or $2.50 gold piece, was one of America's most elegant gold denominations, featuring Augustus Saint-Gaudens' celebrated Indian Head design on the obverse and an eagle in flight on the reverse. The 1928 date falls within the later production years of this series, which ran from 1908 to 1929, making it a sought-after issue for collectors building complete date sets. Graded NGC MS-65, this coin exhibits the characteristics expected of a gem-quality example. The MS-65 designation indicates near-gem condition with light contact marks visible only under magnification, while maintaining strong luster and eye appeal typical of well-preserved gold coinage from this era. The Indian Head Quarter Eagle is consistently popular among pre-1933 gold collectors due to its artistic merit and historical significance as part of America's gold coinage heritage.
