Description

1928 Indian Head Quarter Eagle ($2.50 Gold Coin). A superb 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 piece showcases the iconic design by renowned sculptor Bela Lyon Pratt, featuring an incuse (recessed) Native American portrait on the obverse. Graded a Gem Uncirculated NGC MS-65, this specimen exhibits exceptional mint state preservation with remarkable luster and sharp details. The golden-orange surfaces display minimal marks, indicative of its high-grade status. The NGC certification (#6824002009) provides additional assurance of the coin's authenticity and condition, making it an attractive addition to both type collectors and pre-1933 gold enthusiasts. The 1928 quarter eagle represents a late issue in the Indian Head gold series, which was produced from 1908 to 1929. With relatively low mintage numbers for this year, this coin offers both numismatic significance and intrinsic gold value. Pristine examples like this are increasingly scarce, representing an excellent opportunity for discerning collectors seeking a high-quality representative of this historic coinage.
