1928 $2 1/2 Brown Label

Description

1928 $2 1/2 Gold Coin, NGC MS-65. This 1928 Quarter Eagle represents a desirable example from the final years of U.S. gold coinage prior to the 1933 suspension. The $2.50 denomination, commonly referred to as a Quarter Eagle, was produced in limited quantities during this period, making later-date examples increasingly collectible. Grading and Condition. Graded MS-65 by NGC (Certificate #6824765010), this coin displays the characteristics expected of a Choice Mint State example. The MS-65 grade indicates well-preserved surfaces with only minor imperfections visible under magnification, representing a significant step above lower Mint State grades and reflecting careful preservation over nearly a century. Significance. Quarter Eagles from 1928 hold particular appeal for collectors of pre-1933 gold coinage, as these pieces represent the twilight years of regular U.S. gold coin production. The denomination itself carries historical importance as one of the classic American gold coins, and examples in this grade are sought after for both type collections and date-specific accumulations.
