The 1850 Liberty Gold Two and a Half Dollars (commonly known as $2.50 gold pieces) are collectible coins minted in the United States as part of the Liberty Head series. These coins feature a depiction of Lady Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse, symbolizing freedom and strength. With a gold composition of 90% gold and 10% copper, they were primarily used as currency in the mid-19th century, making them valuable to both numismatists and investors today.
