Description
1926 $2 1/2 Gold Coin. This Quarter Eagle represents a classic example of early 20th-century American gold coinage. The $2.50 denomination, commonly known as the Quarter Eagle, was minted in limited quantities during this period, making each example a valued addition to any pre-1933 gold collection. Grading and Condition. Graded NGC MS-65, this coin exhibits exceptional preservation for its age. The MS-65 designation indicates a coin with attractive luster, minimal surface marks, and strong eye appeal—characteristics that distinguish this piece as a premium example of the 1926 issue. NGC Certification Number: 2178799006. Historical Significance. Quarter Eagles hold an important place in numismatic history as one of the earliest regularly-minted U.S. gold denominations. The 1926 date falls within the final years of pre-Depression gold coinage, before the suspension of domestic gold coin production. This coin remains a desirable piece for type collectors, date collectors, and those seeking exposure to classic American gold issues. Starting Bid: $1,400
