The $2.5 Classic Head Quarter Eagle (1834–1839) is a rare Pre-33 U.S. gold coin containing 0.1209 oz of gold. With its short mintage run and historic design, it remains highly collectible and sought after by both investors and numismatists.
The $2.5 Classic Head Quarter Eagle, minted from 1834 to 1839, represents a pivotal piece of early American coinage. Struck in 90% gold with an actual gold weight of 0.1209 troy ounces, this coin was created after the 1834 Coinage Act, which adjusted the gold content to discourage melting and hoarding.
Designed by William Kneass, the obverse features Liberty wearing a fillet inscribed “LIBERTY,” while the reverse bears the heraldic eagle with a shield. Its brief production span and low surviving populations make it a scarce and highly collectible coin in all grades.
Offered here in varying conditions, these coins may show honest circulation wear or stronger detail depending on grade, but all retain their intrinsic gold content and historical significance. The Classic Head Quarter Eagle is a rare opportunity for both numismatic collectors and gold investors to own an authentic piece of U.S. monetary history.
