The 1885 Liberty Gold Two and a Half Dollar coin, also known as the quarter eagle, was minted in Philadelphia and is part of the Liberty Head series, which was produced from 1840 to 1907. This coin features an image of Lady Liberty wearing a diadem on the obverse, with the inscription "LIBERTY" above her head, while the reverse displays an eagle with outstretched wings and the denomination "2 1/2 DOL." The 1885 issue is notable for its relatively low mintage, making it a sought-after piece among collectors of U.S. gold coins.
