Collectible coins represent a unique category of numismatics, often valued for their historical significance, rarity, and condition. In the United States, the Two and a Half Dollar coin, also known as the Quarter Eagle, was produced from 1796 to 1929. Among its various designs, the Draped Bust, created by artist Gilbert Stuart, is notable, particularly the 1798 issue struck in Philadelphia. This coin features an obverse depicting Liberty with a flowing hairstyle and a reverse showcasing an eagle, making it highly sought after by collectors due to its limited mintage and artistic appeal.
