Description

1901 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle Gold Coin. A stunning gem-quality example of the late Victorian-era gold quarter eagle, this 1901-dated *$2.50 Liberty Head* piece represents the pinnacle of American gold coinage from the turn of the 20th century. Certified by NGC at an impressive MS-65 grade, this coin exhibits remarkable preservation and eye appeal that will delight advanced numismatists and gold coin collectors. The Liberty Head quarter eagle series, designed by Christian Gobrecht, represents a critical period in United States mint history, with this particular issue struck during the final years of the design before the Saint-Gaudens type would revolutionize gold coin aesthetics. The MS-65 grade indicates exceptional mint state preservation, with minimal marks and outstanding original luster that speaks to careful preservation over more than a century. Graded and authenticated by NGC with certificate #11505106, this coin offers exceptional quality for the discerning collector. The pristine surfaces showcase the intricate design details of Liberty's portrait and the classic eagle reverse with remarkable clarity and technical excellence. A premium representative of its era and an outstanding example of American gold coinage from the early 20th century.
