The Liberty Head quarter eagle, valued at $2.50, was produced by the United States Mint from 1840 to 1907. The 1877 Philadelphia issue is particularly notable among collectors for its historical context and design, featuring a depiction of Liberty in a coronet. These coins are made of 90% gold and are sought after for both their gold content and numismatic value, particularly in well-preserved grades. The demand for the 1877 quarter eagle contributes to its collectible status within the broader category of American gold coins.
