Collectible coins, such as the Liberty Head quarter eagle, are a notable category of numismatic items valued for their historical significance, rarity, and condition. The Liberty Head quarter eagle, which features a design by engraver James B. Longacre, was minted in the United States from 1840 to 1907, with denominations including the 2.50 dollars (or two and a half dollars). The 1861 Philadelphia minted version is particularly sought after due to its historical context and lower mintage during a tumultuous period in American history. Collectors often seek these coins for their aesthetic appeal and potential investment value.
