Collectible coins, particularly from the United States, encompass a variety of types and historical contexts. The Two and a Half Dollar coin, often referred to as a quarter eagle, was minted in gold and typically features designs such as the American Liberty motif. The 1890 coin from this series holds significance due to its rarity and historical value within the broader context of American numismatics, especially during the late 19th century when gold coins were commonly used in commercial transactions. Collectors often seek such coins not only for their monetary value but also for their artistic and historical attributes.
