In the realm of collectible coins, the Two and a Half Dollar denomination, often referred to as a quarter eagle, encompasses a rich history in the United States. These coins were minted primarily in gold and feature various designs, with notable examples coming from the Philadelphia Mint. The 1846 pattern trial coins represent experimental pieces created to test new designs or strikes before full-scale production. Such patterns are highly sought after by collectors due to their limited mintage and unique features, making them valuable additions to any numismatic collection.
