Minted from 1908 to 1929, the $2.5 Indian Gold Quarter Eagle is a standout in U.S. coinage history for its distinctive incuse (sunken) design by Bela Lyon Pratt. The obverse features a Native American chief in full headdress, while the reverse displays a majestic bald eagle perched with strength and dignity.
Each coin is struck from .1209 troy ounces of pure gold (90% gold, 10% copper), offering both historic and intrinsic value. With its smaller size and iconic design, the Indian Quarter Eagle is one of the most accessible pre-1933 U.S. gold coins.
Offered in varying condition, this piece remains highly collectible for its artistry, rarity, and enduring role in America’s numismatic heritage.
