US Quarter Eagles

Quarter Eagles ($2.50 gold pieces) were minted from 1796 to 1929 and included Capped Bust, Classic Head, Coronet Head, and Indian Head designs. The Indian Head Quarter Eagle (1908-1929), designed by Bela Lyon Pratt, features an unusual incused (sunken) design. These coins contain 0.1209 troy ounces of gold. Quarter Eagles saw extensive circulation until the 1933 gold recall and are now popular with both gold investors and numismatists.
