$2.50 Indian Head Gold Coin Cleaned/Jewelry Grade - .1209 Troy Ounce Gold Content
The $2.50 Indian Head Gold Coin, designed by Bela Lyon Pratt, is a significant piece of American numismatic history, cherished by collectors and investors alike. This quarter eagle coin, minted by the United States Mint, features a unique incuse design that sets it apart from other U.S. gold coins of its era.
With its substantial gold content and iconic design, the $2.50 Indian Head Gold Coin remains a popular choice for those looking to add historical significance and value to their precious metals portfolio.
A Cleaned/Jewelry Grade coin is a coin that has been altered from its original state through cleaning, polishing, or modification for use in jewelry, which diminishes its numismatic value. These coins are primarily valued for their precious metal content, or in this case, their gold content, as the alterations reduce their appeal to collectors and result in lower coin collecting market prices while maintaining their melt value.
Coin Highlights:
-
Designer: Bela Lyon Pratt, renowned for his distinctive incuse design.
-
Gold Content: Contains .12094 troy ounces of pure gold (4.18 grams total weight), with a composition of 90% gold and 10% copper, ensuring durability and lasting value.
-
Quality / Type: Circulated, with varying conditions based on the year of issue and availability.
-
Design:
- Obverse: Features a proud Native American chief in full headdress, symbolizing the spirit of freedom and independence.
- Reverse: Showcases a majestic bald eagle perched on a bundle of arrows and an olive branch, symbolizing peace and strength.
- Edge: Reeded for added security and authenticity.
-
Unique Design: The incuse design, where the images are recessed into the coin rather than raised, makes this coin stand out and adds to its appeal among collectors.
-
Legal Tender: With a face value of $2.50 USD, the Indian Head Gold Coin was legal tender during its time of circulation, though its melt value far exceeds its face value based on its gold content.
-
Historical Significance: Minted from 1908 to 1929 (not 1916-1924), the $2.50 Indian Head Gold Coin represents a pivotal period in American history and is a valuable piece for collectors and historians alike.
-
US Mint Locations: These coins were minted at the Philadelphia Mint and Denver Mint locations.

William K.February 5th, 2021Good Choice!I purchased 4 of the coins and was pleased with the condition of each. A bit worn but the relief was still very good. After all, these coins are 120 years old. From a personal point of view, I prefer to use the term " invest" rather than purchase when acquiring precious metals. Any form of gold and silver is a wise investment. Thanks MME!
