Step into a golden era of American coinage with the $2.5 Gold Liberty Head Quarter Eagle – Ex Jewelry (Random Year). Struck in .900 fine gold by the U.S. Mint between 1840 and 1907, this classic coin contains 4.18 grams (0.1209 troy oz) of gold and features the timeless Liberty Head design by Chief Engraver Christian Gobrecht. Offered in Ex Jewelry Condition, each coin may exhibit signs of wear from being set in jewelry—making it an affordable and historically rich option for collectors of vintage U.S. gold.
These Quarter Eagles were minted during an era of profound economic and social transformation in the United States, from the California Gold Rush through the post-Civil War period and into the early 20th century. Often gifted as keepsakes or used in everyday transactions, many of these coins survived the ravages of time, including Executive Order 6102, which led to the mass recall and melting of gold coins in 1933.
Despite their worn condition, Ex Jewelry coins remain highly collectible due to their pre-1933 status, gold content, and connection to key chapters in American history. Their smaller size and affordability make them an excellent entry point for new numismatists and gold stackers alike.
