1926 $2 1/2 Gold Coin

This 1926 Quarter Eagle represents a notable example from the final decade of regular gold coinage circulation in the United States. The Quarter Eagle, or $2.50 gold piece, was a staple of American commerce and remained in production through 1929 before suspension due to the Great Depression. The 1926 date falls within this important period of U.S. monetary history.

The coin has been certified by NGC as MS-65, indicating a well-preserved specimen with attractive eye appeal and minimal wear. At this grade level, the piece exhibits the bright luster and sharp striking characteristics expected of an uncirculated example, making it suitable for both type collectors and those seeking quality pre-1933 gold coinage. The NGC certification number 2178799006 provides full authentication and grading verification.

Quarter Eagles from the 1926 vintage remain popular among collectors of early American gold coins, offering excellent value relative to larger denominations. This certified MS-65 example represents a solid addition to any pre-1933 gold collection.
