Description

# 1927 $2.50 Indian Head Quarter Eagle Gold Coin. PCGS MS-65. A stunning example of the Bela Lyon Pratt Indian Head Quarter Eagle series, this 1927 *$2.50 gold coin* from the Philadelphia Mint represents a pinnacle of Pre-1933 gold coinage artistry. Struck with exceptional precision, this gem-quality specimen showcases the nuanced design characteristics that make the Indian Head series so collectible. Certified by PCGS with a remarkable MS-65 grade (Cert# 49656079), this coin exhibits the characteristic light rose to greenish-gold hues typical of the late 1920s Philadelphia issues. From a mintage of 388,000, only a limited number have survived in such superior preservation. The population data reveals only 77 coins graded higher, making this an especially desirable example for advanced numismatists and gold coin collectors. Composed of 90% gold and 10% copper, the coin features Bela Lyon Pratt's distinctive incuse design, with weight of 4.18g and a precise 18mm diameter. The reeded edge and exceptional strike quality highlight the coin's superior minting standards of the era. This piece represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a near-gem example of a classic American gold coin with remarkable eye appeal and historical significance. Numismatic Highlights: - *PCGS MS-65*. - Philadelphia Mint. - Light rose to greenish-gold color. - Exceptional strike and luster. - Low population in higher grades
