1928 Gold Indian Head 2.50 Quarter Eagle • Genuine 90% Pure Fractional Gold Coin • Philadelphia Mint • Graded About Uncirculated PCGS AU55

What I really like about these 90% gold Indian Heads are their look! The design is truly American, and unlike any other U.S. coin.

This innovative style is found only on the gold half and quarter eagles of 1908-1929. Bela Lyon Pratt created this design by recessing or "incusing" the artistic elements below the coin's surface. Plus, the native American chief on the obverse is a bold departure from previous "liberty" types.

Because of Roosevelt's Gold Reserve Act of 1933, thousands of collectors gave up gold coins, which were melted. So today, quarter eagles in this condition are scarce!
