Description

# 1927 $2 1/2 Indian Head Quarter Eagle Gold Coin. A stunning gem quality *Indian Head Quarter Eagle* from the Philadelphia Mint, this 1927 $2 1/2 gold coin represents a pinnacle of Pre-1933 numismatic artistry. Struck during the final years of the Bela Lyon Pratt design, this exquisite specimen showcases the distinctive incuse relief characteristic of this innovative series. Graded a remarkable PCGS MS-65, this coin exhibits exceptional preservation and visual appeal. With a total population of just 594 coins graded, and only 77 at or above this grade level, the piece represents a scarce and desirable example of its type. The coin displays a captivating color palette ranging from light rose gold to rich greenish gold, typical of the most attractive late Philadelphia Mint issues from this era. Minted with 90% gold and 10% copper, this quarter eagle weighs 4.18g and measures 18mm in diameter. The original mintage of 388,000 pieces has been significantly reduced by time and attrition, making well-preserved examples like this particularly noteworthy. The reeded edge and impeccable strike further enhance its collectibility, representing a superior example of early 20th-century American coinage.
