The Liberty Head Quarter Eagle coins, valued at $2.50, were minted in the United States from 1840 to 1907. The Dahlonega Mint, established in Georgia, produced these coins from 1838 to 1861, primarily using gold sourced from local mines. The design features Liberty in a cap, surrounded by 13 stars, and the reverse displays an eagle with a shield, symbolizing strength and freedom. The 1840 issue is particularly notable among collectors due to its historical significance and the limited mintage from the Dahlonega Mint.
