The Indian Head Quarter Eagle AU: Pratt's Sunken Design in Gold
Look closely at an Indian Head quarter eagle AU and you'll notice the design sits below the surface rather than rising above it. This pre-1933 U.S. gold coin was struck between 1908 and 1929 and contains 0.1209 troy ounces of gold in a .900 fine alloy. It is offered in Almost Uncirculated (AU) condition, a grade for coins with only slight traces of wear, and carries a $2.50 face value.
Why the Incuse Design Stands Out
Bela Lyon Pratt designed the Indian Head Quarter Eagle, and his incuse approach, with details recessed into the surface instead of raised, was a rare choice in American coinage. The obverse shows a Native American in a headdress, surrounded by 13 stars, LIBERTY, and the date. The reverse features an eagle perched on a bundle of arrows. Because dates and mintmarks are chosen at random based on availability, each coin may come from a different year and mint.
