Collectible coins, also known as numismatic coins, are valued for their rarity, historical significance, and condition beyond their face value. The Two and a Half Dollar gold coin, also known as the Liberty Head or Quarter Eagle, was produced in the United States from 1796 to 1907, with the 1842 issues minted at the Dahlonega mint being particularly sought after due to their limited production and historical context. These coins are composed of 90% gold and are significant for their design, which features Lady Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse, making them popular among collectors and investors alike.
