The $2.50 Liberty Gold coin, also known as the Quarter Eagle, was minted in the United States from 1840 to 1907. The 1854 version features a design by sculptor James B. Longacre, prominently displaying Liberty's head on the obverse and a classic eagle with a shield on the reverse. This coin contains 0.1209 ounces of gold and is highly valued by collectors for its historical significance and aesthetic appeal, particularly in higher grades. The 1854 coin is noteworthy within the series due to its lower mintage and potential for rarity.
