Description
1927 $2 1/2 Gold Quarter Eagle. This 1927 $2 1/2 gold Quarter Eagle represents a desirable example from the final years of this classic denomination's regular circulation coinage. The Quarter Eagle, officially a $2.50 piece, was a staple of American commerce throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with the 1927 date falling within the final decade of pre-Depression production. Graded NGC MS-65, this piece exhibits the attractive luster and eye appeal characteristic of Mint State examples. The technical specifications of Quarter Eagles from this period reflect the U.S. Mint's refined coining standards, with each piece containing 0.2419 troy ounces of pure gold. The MS-65 grade indicates a coin with only minor imperfections, displaying excellent mint luster and strike quality while remaining free of significant distracting marks. Pre-1933 gold coins maintain strong collector interest due to their historical significance, numismatic appeal, and intrinsic value. This example offers both numismatic merit and the enduring appeal of early 20th-century American gold coinage. NGC Certificate #1665794007.
