Pre-33 $2.5 Indian Gold Eagle Coin AU Grade
$2.50 Indian Head Gold Quarter Eagle
This was a coin whose genesis can be traced to President Teddy Roosevelt. In 1904, Roosevelt wanted new American coinage to look and feel like coins struck by the Greeks and Romans – coins with allegorical symbolism and very high relief. He did not want the same old boring coinage that we currently had.
