Description

1911 Indian Head Quarter Eagle Gold Coin. A splendid Pre-1933 United States Gold Coin featuring the iconic Indian Head design by renowned sculptor Bela Lyon Pratt. This $2.50 gold quarter eagle represents a pinnacle of early 20th-century American numismatic artistry, struck at the Philadelphia Mint during the final years of the classic gold coinage era. Certified by NGC at a Choice Uncirculated MS-63 grade, this specimen displays exceptional mint state preservation with lustrous surfaces and sharp design details characteristic of this desirable type. The low mintage year of 1911 adds significant collector appeal, making this an attractive opportunity for both advanced numismatists and gold coin enthusiasts. The coin's natural golden-orange patina and minimal contact marks underscore its high-quality state of preservation. The Indian Head quarter eagle series (1908-1929) is celebrated for its innovative incuse design, where design elements are recessed into the coin's surface rather than raised. This technical innovation by Pratt represents a unique moment in American coin design, making each example a tangible piece of numismatic history. NGC Certificate #8522856012 guarantees the coin's authenticity and grade, providing additional confidence for discerning collectors. *Mintage: Limited* | *Metal: 90% Gold* | *Diameter: 18mm* | *Weight: 4.18 grams*
