coins \ Coin \ United States of America \ $2.50 (Two and a Half Dollars) \ Early $2.50 \ 1821 \ Philadelphia
Collectible coins from the United States, specifically the Two and a Half Dollar pieces, also known as quarter eagles, were minted starting in 1796. The early design, particularly those minted in 1821 at the Philadelphia mint, features the portrait of Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. These coins are often sought after by collectors for their historical significance, rarity, and craftsmanship. The 1821 quarter eagle is particularly notable for its relatively limited mintage, making it a key date in the series.
