Collectible coins, particularly in the context of United States currency, encompass various denominations and types, including the Two and a Half Dollar coin, commonly referred to as a quarter eagle. This coin features a design that often showcases iconic imagery, such as eagles or representations of liberty. The Colorado Gold rush in the mid-19th century significantly influenced the production of gold coins, including those of this denomination, as gold was mined extensively in the region. Collectors often seek these coins not only for their monetary value but also for their historical significance and artistry.
