The Liberty Head quarter eagle, valued at $2.50, was minted by the United States from 1840 to 1907. The 1848 edition, particularly from the Charlotte mint, is notable for its historical significance and scarcity. These coins feature a design by engraver Christian Gobrecht, showcasing Liberty wearing a coronet and the inscription "LIBERTY." The reverse displays an eagle with a shield, symbolizing strength and freedom. Charlotte-minted coins are especially sought after by collectors due to their limited mintage and association with the Southern gold rush.
